Chambers Management
Undoubtedly, Pippa Evans is the queen of cheese comedy, but rather than filling the auditorium with stifled groans she warrants a tumult of laughter through her four quirky characters: a down-and-out, Northern, husband-murdering, cabaret performer whom you would expect to find in a working men's club; a mentally-deficient self-titled Theatre Audience Technician; an infatuated stalker who is in love with, and used by, the aforementioned cabaret performer and who has a penchant for eggs; and a Kurt Cobain-esque alcoholic American singer. Evans is comic through her surreally-incongruent songs and her spoken act, coupling a powerful creativity with a skilled talent in acting and singing to create a risqué laugh a minute performance.
Pleasance Courtyard, 5 - 28 Aug, 6.20pm (7.20pm), prices vary, fpp88.
