Why didn’t they call it **** Poppins as it would be a wonderful description… Anyway. The show is very British, as the plot is based on unbelievable politeness (which is really funny). But I was disappointed with the huge amount of awkward and embarrassing jokes, wanted to leave a few times. However, the actors are brilliant and it was a pleasure to watch them work all together.Read more →

Very funny farce - Reece Sheersmith particularly brilliant.Read more →

Frances Barber has long enjoyed a relationship with wayward OTT characters (her Billie Trix springs readily to mind). In her supremely capable and experienced hands “Elsa” blossoms into a nightmare house guest. Mark Gatiss has directed Moffat’s speedy rhythmic writing pace almost as a Whitehall farce, deploying subtle lighting and music cues as masterfully as Brian Rix ever did. The result is a joyously idiotic spectacle realised on Robert Jones’ old-fashioned set, in one of London’s quaintest theatres, where even the faint whiff of damp carpet seems entirely appropriate and welcome.Read more →

Funny. Not unlike watching a sitcom. Superficially entertaining but could have benefitted from darker edges.Read more →

Hilariously funny!! A great story of why not to share your contact details with other holidaymakers (or, should you?) The entire cast are brilliant. Reece Sheersmith is amazing. This play is not to be missed.Read more →

Andrea Ma

Middle-class comedy of manners, physical humour and political satire are fuse together by a quick tempo. Frances Barber dominates the stage as maybe murderess Elsa Jean Krakovski, but Gabriel Howell’s performance as sulky teenager Alex is also a little gem.Read more →
