The Thinking Drinkers have done it again! A brand new show, a musical no less, and this time Ben and Tom are joined by 3 very talented ladies, Katy, Issy and Charlotte (Flat and the curves)
The old pub quiz is gone, now the lads have gone all West End and with a lot of help from the girls they’ve got another sure fire winner on their hands.
There’s still a very welcome goodie bag of booze on entry to the show, and we are taken on a fabulous musical journey to help save the pub, indeed we are drinking in The Thinking Drinkers Arms! Pubs are on the decline and it’s up to us to do our best to keep them alive!
Very cleverly written and beautifully performed the guys provide the laughs and the girls vocals are on point, harmonising incredibly well.
Now in their 12th year, the lads knowledge of alcoholic drinks and how to drink them responsibly is the stand out part of the show.
As always, their motto, their message, their mantra to drink less but to drink better is adhered to by the quality of the drinks they provide a now booze-fuelled audience.
Very entertaining , very engaging , lots of fun and some great tunes performed with much gusto and a transition from their previous format, makes this show rather mellifluous!!
Go and see it and save a pub.
