Summary
Neil Hannon and The Divine Comedy resurrected the magic of their 1996 classic “Casanova” in a spellbinding live show, turning a seated venue into a roaring celebration with hits like “Something for the Weekend” and “Becoming More Like Alfie.” Hannon’s razor-sharp songwriting dazzled, especially in “Norman and Norma” and the socially charged “Generation Sex,” while lesser-known gems like “Bang Goes the Knighthood” delivered biting wit with theatrical flair. The crowd danced wildly to “National Express,” skipped the encore for a surprise dive into “At the Indie Disco” and “Songs of Love,” and closed with the soaring, emotional “Tonight We Fly” — leaving everyone humming, hearts full, and reluctant to leave.
