After three stagings, Oral Tracey is aiming to take his family-oriented show, Let Loose, to another level.

The latest edition of the comedy event took place July 27 at the Jamaica Pegasus in Kingston, and its founder is upbeat about the future.

“Basically, it continues to evolve and the responses are growing from strength to strength, not just locally, but from the Diaspora,” Tracey told the Jamaica Observer.

“I have some plans to expand this kind of alternative entertainment but I am not going to make any grand announcement right now.”

He said there is a possibility the next Let Loose will be in Montego Bay this year.

Lemon and Christopher ‘Johnny’ Daley were the high points of the recent show which was not as tightly packaged as the previous event.

Elva, the popular ‘diva of comedy’, also generated some laughter, but the evening, for the most part, lacked fire.

The multi-faceted Lemon showed his versatility by singing When I See You Smile and Hero. Daley touched hot topics such as the legalisation of ganja.

Singer Noddy Virtue did not rise to the occasion and left to a polite farewell from the audience.

Broadcaster/newspaper columnist Orville ‘Bramble’ Higgins, in his new role, hit the mark a few times with childhood reflections and how he became a sportscaster.

He recalled that when he did the interview for radio, a number of other companies were ‘after’ him.

“These included JPS (Jamaica Public Service) and the (National) Water Commission,” he quipped.

Another debutant, comedian Sheppard, was well received. Boxer Iron Dog, a former competitor in The Contender series, made up for Admiral Bailey’s no-show with (if for nothing else) singing the National Anthem which was strongly applauded.

It is reasonable to assume that Iron Dog’s potential is more in music, or comedy, not as a boxer.
