Jimmy Hogg—School of Contemporary Dancers
If you had not already guessed from the title, this is a show about Christmas. When I walked in, the pre-show music was playing my favourite Christmas song, Slade’s “Merry Christmas, Everybody.” But that’s not important right now.
Jimmy Hogg onstage is a little like a cross between Keith Moon’s energy and Buster Keaton’s physicality. He really inhabits his material, and his material is both funny and heartwarming. As you might have guessed already, I loved this show. (And if you are not familial with Slade’s Christmas song, it’s on YouTube.)
