Caitlin Cook: The Writing on the Stall 3***
August 19, 2022 | one4reviewWe meet Ms Cook in the bathroom that is the show’s setting, and she sings us some songs about the graffiti she’s found. The opening could be a bit weird, but Ms Cook makes it work, and followed by some … Read More
Sasha Ellen: Creeps and Geeks 3.5***
August 19, 2022 | one4reviewMs Ellen tells us a story with detours about her encounters with various creeps of the world, and it’s perhaps these experiences which give her the skills to firmly but nicely to tell the heckler to shoosh. I was impressed: … Read More
Hannah Pilkes: A Woman on the Verge 4****
August 7, 2022 | one4reviewI’m not convinced I have a secure grasp of all of what went on in this show, but it was full of energy and good fun. Ms Pilkes arrived late, though managed to get herself ready with some assistance from … Read More
