In a note from the director she writes "creating a show for the Fringe Festival is a daunting liberating task" that Royal Holloway Theatre "returns with something new, fresh and exciting" and that " she guarantee you will be challenged and entertained"! Just how I can challenge her statements I am not sure.  The production may be new for me it was neither fresh nor exciting. Challenged? Yes! Entertained? No! I left wanting the past hour of my life back.

Normally a supporter of The Royal Holloway I will now think four or five times before going back to one of their shows. The only positive I could see was that the performers Lewis Collier, Anna McKiernan, EJ Martin and Steve Wickenden act out of their socks staying in character at all times.
