 | great main review, there's little to add really. This is a wonderfully funny evening out, and the antithesis of the inpenetrable and unenjoyable 'No Man's Land'. There's little sexual content despite the title, so don't worry, this isn't a companion-piece to the terrifying Mother Molly's Clap House. I'd agree that it seemed slightly overlong, but in truth Barlow & Ramm never stop being delightful to watch and listen too so it's not like yawning through the final act of Parsifal. If you saw 'Love Upon the Throne' then yes you'll recognise sections of this, but then there's no harm in re-using great comic material which a lot of people would have missed previously. I was just so impressed to see a full-house Lyttelton audience having so much fun together, even up in the balcony. Don't miss this - it'll appeal to everyone who enjoys watching and laughing at incompetant performers. The programme is worth buying for the hilarious photographs of the NTOB introducing themselves around the RNT. - USER: Whatsonstage.com | 09 Jan 02 |
