Join David, a 40-something retired twink,

as he discusses his life as a gay man. From growing up in a small town in Scotland in the 80’s and 90’s, to becoming an international flight attendant. The ups and downs, the tops and bottoms. All the while trying to answer that age old question - who actually IS the daddy?

Carrot Top, Memoirs of a Gay, is a bright and breezy expose of David Ingram’s chequered past, from his humble roots growing up in Scotland to the dizzy heights of being cabin crew and travelling the world. His humour although observational, is also out to shock with tirades of sexual innuendo and emotional baggage. His one liners can be cutting, clever and dirty all at the same time with a dollop of blunt sarcasm thrown in.

Some of the funnies around stereotyping may be a bit obvious but in general his material is edgy enough to land well with the crowd. The venue lends itself to this show incredibly well as we are all sat in aeroplane seats, but there’s no trolley service on this short haul gig. His early years and family life have some hilarious moments, it’s an overdose of campness on a grand scale.

I did enjoy Ingram’s show, but still it feels that there’s more to come. It has the bones of being a very good show, but there’s a bit too much cliché. His throw away one liners are great but too many means they are easily forgotten. Click Here For Review
