Product Placement, the Show
A comedy show following Herbert’s desperate quest for employment, this performance had the crowd in stitches.
The audience participation connected the room, as well as with his awkward, crude jokes. The improvisation was hilarious and the reaction with the volunteers that were invited on stage really brought the show together.
Though awkward, Hebert has a never ending fanny pack of tricks, and a mind full of jokes. His set was simple, but every pocket held props that were revealed throughout the show.
While the performance was at times uncomfortable, as well as short and crass, Herbert needs work was creative, personal, funny, and enjoyable.
