Since October of 2003, Usurper has been saying…..

“We have a punchline at the end of each set which equals one joke every three weeks: “I’m not laughing at him. I’m laughing with him. No, I’m not laughing at him. I’m laughing with him.”

Combined comprehensive educations of Fife and Edinburgh failed to curb luddite tendencies or discourage low forms of wit: Ali Robertson got remedial as Giant Tank head-honker. Malcy Duff draws.

Meanwhile: A lack of understanding proved that if you leave something broken long enough it’ll start working again and Usurper got born.

In October of 2023, Giant Tank presents…..GTNK050: THAT’S THAT THEN. Commemorating 19 years and 364 days of Usurper.

This will be the final performance by Malcy Duff & Ali Robertson as USURPER. Some of their old pals will perform also: TINDEGGER (FUA’s Tina K & Muscletusk’s Grant Smith), JOYCE WHITCHURCH (Acrid Lactations’ Susan Fitzpatrick) & CHOCOLATE MONK DJs (Karen Constance & Dylan Nyoukis).

"“Offering a distinctly Scottish answer to the absurdist improv of London’s Bohman Brothers and the US tape underground, Usurper are best experienced live, where their tabletop jumble and faltering dialogues can be seen in all their Beckett-via-Bud Neill glory.”"The Quietus.
