Acutely pitched and incomprehensibly energetic, Hot Gay Time Machine's high camp soiree into Toby Marlow and Zak Ghazi-Torbati's sexual awakenings is intelligent, unadulteratedly obnoxious and sublimely silly. Lucy Moss, Toby Marlow and collaborator Zak Ghazi-Torbati's second West End …
Charles Court Opera’s alternative panto offering of 2018, Buttons: A Cinderella Story, is on the money - impressing with a talented ensemble, quality production values and enormously funny (if not-so-innocent) gags. The King's Head Theatre is …
Laughs do come thick and fast in Fat Rascal's gender-swapped Beauty and the Beast parody - but it doesn't particularly play to individual cast members' strengths, nor seem quite as imaginative or well-oiled, as Vulvarine did. Fat Rascal's Vulvarine was …
