Mark Cram is the best kind of comic, giving every ounce of charisma to the audience then pulling the whole crowd along on a beautiful narrative ride with so much energy, heart and sincerity.
Alongside an absolute belter of a set, Mark talks with host and MC James Ross about the interplay of high and low status on stage, audience interaction and how the truth can be funny, poetic and memorable.
Editor's Note: Mark's audio was completely corrupted for this one so I had to pull it from the call between James & Mark, apologies for the quality. The content, though, is still very good!
