Some
performances have a sting in the tail, this one had it lived up to its
name ‘Wasp’ should surely have been one of those!
Sadly
all I was left with was a Pain!
I overheard the comment “ I loved that, it was weird and inane just
like me!” as we left the theatre. Well, that said it all as far as I was concerned.
Admittedly
I have never really understood Steve Martin and as he is the author it
might have started to ring warning bells. This young American cast
acting out the All-American apple pie, White Anglo-Saxon Protestant
family values with a cardboard cut out set is fairly ironic,
and I thought Yanks don’t do Irony!!
This
just wasn’t one of the must see shows of this Fringe or me.
