Review - Simon Evans: In The Money - The Lowry, Salford

As a show about economics In The Money disappoints lacking the insight or even anger that one might hope from such a provocative topic. The show is worth catching, however, for the polished script and excellent delivery. All of the jokes are buffed to a high sheen with excellent turns of phrase and Evans is the master of the loaded pause leading up to the punchline.

Catastrophe: tender, believable and filthily funny

Channel 4's deliciously tart romcom is as truthful a portrayal of postnatal depression and dementia as you're likely to see - and certainly the funniest.

Reviewer review: Alun Evans (Scotsgay)

At first it seems that Alun Evans' reviews are not very good. They seem like very matter-of-fact, unexceptional and literal pieces of prose. And then you remember that this is exactly what reviews are supposed to be like, and that you (and probably everyone else) has been ruined by the review-as-self-expression. The creative writing approach to criticism - love me as I demolish this guy - is now so ubiquitous that we notice its absence far more than we're aware of it thrusting its crotch in our faces.
