Puppetry of the Penis: The Ancient Australian Art of Genital Origami - Live at the Forum Reviews
Full Monty Dissapointment
Limp entertainment. While it is all you ever wanted to see in exploring the various ways you can manipulate mens genitals; it is highly boring after the initial on-film shock value wears off. That took several minutes. Truly nothing you haven't seen or imagined if you've ever had foreplay with a man with lights low/on; or are a man that has pretended his genitals are a hamburger. For men - nothing you can't do, haven't done, or imagined. NO great comedy or dialog. Live audience laughter and on-screen reactions seem very strained. Better genital entertainment is "The Vagina Monologues." You may like this if you enjoy simple male genital tricks that are easily done. Full Monty Dissapointment.
Show and Tell
PUPPETRY OF THE PENIS was an unexpected hot ticket in London and New York--a fifty minute comedy act that involves to two men who give a new meaning to the phrase "show and tell" by stripping buck naked and twisting their genitalia into, well, object d'art. So to speak. And this DVD offers the show before a live audience, so you can sit in on the twisting and pulling in an up-close and personal sort of way.
This sounds a lot more bizarre than it really is, as any man who ever spent part of their teenage years in the highschool locker room can tell you. Yes: it really is teenage boy humor, and Austrailian comics Simon Morley and David Friend have snatched it out of the locker room and plunked it on stage for all the world to see. There's "the boomerang," "the eye," "the Loch Ness Monster," "the baby bird," and a host of other penis impersonations--all of which are good for a giggle and some of which are downright hilarious.
Although the show is done in the nude, it isn't in the least erotic, so if that's what you're looking for you had better go some where else. And in truth, this is a show that probably works much better on stage, where there it no doubt has an "in your face" factor that leads the audience to embarrassed hilarity--and indeed, the camera spends almost as much time on audience reaction as on the performers.
Now, this is never going to make any one's short list of "must own live comedy shows." After all, the material will only stretch so far... but taken in the right spirit, it is quite amusing, and it might be the perfect video for that next party you're thinking about giving--just imagine the possibilities! The DVD package also includes a documentary on the creation of a second PUPPETRY OF THE PENIS performing company, which is also amusing in a bizarre sort of way, and a small booklet that will let viewers follow along at home if they are so inclined. An entertaining bit of fluff.
