A sketch comedy show featuring three young ladies, performed in a very hot room up three flights of stairs at the C venue. The first sketch was a bit dubious as a choice as it was the London Underground marathon and much of the humour was lost on an audience that hasn’t see a proper underground for decades.
There were a few other sketches that fell a bit flat but most of the show was funny and very well performed. My favourites were the lady who faked pregnancy as I’ve known people that desperate for a holiday and a new TV; the chocolate mousse sketch and its sequel at the yoga class; the teenager on work experience; the ginger (though I’ve never heard Aussies refer to gingers as rangas, we always called them bluey); the girls out-dieting each other at the gym; and the proposal at the posh restaurant.
The ladies all played their parts with aplomb and there was hardly a moment between the sketches. If you want a good solid (almost) hour of comedy well-written and performed, then I can heartily recommend Vinegar Knickers in Your Mum.
