There’s something about the way that Kenny comfortably heads over to his harmonium and just starts toying with it, waiting for the audience to react as he brings forth a cultured joke. The comedian is ultra-comfortable in making a stand-up slightly different to the norm; bringing instruments on the stage is nothing new at all — in fact, various comedians attempt to mix it up. Just last year, we had Adam Sandler rapping for a large portion of his stand-up. Kenny Sebastian: The Most Interesting Person in the Room is an enjoyable experience, especially when the comedian gets out the guitar and shows off his vocals.
But Kenny Sebastian: The Most Interesting Person in the Room is very much about rooting for the underdog — the comedian focuses a lot on meeting expectations in life and often failing. Comedians that bring forward the notion that not hitting benchmarks is human is the type of comedy I can get on board with. It’s relatable and Kenny Sebatasion is uniquely relatable.
Kenny Sebastian: The Most Interesting Person in the Room is my first experience with this stand-up and while from a comedic level, he does not tune into my sense of humor as much as I would like, it’s evident from the audience that he has a rapport with his supporters.
