A quirky and
funny thinker, Lucero's brilliantly inventive gags have very little fat on them.
He's a bit of a slow burner, but aided by an inalienable skill with language, he
expertly conjures up the most ridiculous of images - yet they are all based on
sturdy observations, further heightening their impressive effect.
Much of his material covers his own encroaching middle age, yet it always
surprises, never going quite where you expect.
Combined with some equally imaginative topical humour, this makes for a classy
and original routine.
Lucero is mainly found in London's smaller clubs, but this undiscovered comic
master is surely deserving of a much wider audience.
