In PurSUEt, Vault Festival review

Not as conedic as I expected, In PurSUEt is more a tragic tale of an alcoholic obsessed, unhealthily, with Sue Perkins (author, presenter, and wit).

In PurSUEt, Vault Festival review

Higgins's portrayal of Woman's lowest moments, presented in a cacophonous sequence of sound and light, is shocking and heartbreaking.

In PurSUEt, Vault Festival review

A show that makes you laugh, whilst cleverly weaving in uncomfortable truths throughout.

In PurSUEt, Vault Festival review

Overall, In PurSUEt is enjoyable to watch, Higgins uses her own experiences to create the story and explore serious topics like addiction and mental health, giving the story a more authentic and relatable feel.

In PurSUEt, Vault Festival review

Stalker comedy is cringey, clumsy and crass.
