Kiri Pritchard-McLean: Appropriate Adult - review

Appropriate Adult is one of the best examples of autobiographical comedy exploring deeply personal topics without any self-pity and ensuring that the jokes flow thick and fast so that the audience can accept the bitterness as part of the comedy.

Kiri Pritchard-McLean: Appropriate Adult review

She's skilful, she's entertaining, she's very funny in that way that makes you laugh at something you never thought you'd find funny, and she's a bit inspiring, sending us all out into the chill night with an agitation scratching at our social conscience. A class act.

Review: Gein's Family Giftshop, Soho Theatre

At its best this is a rollercoaster ride of a comedy show. You simply don't know what is going to happen next, which is rare in comedy and makes them really exciting. There are themes here - sex, violence, death mainly - but even when they do an obligatory airport security routine it comes from decidedly left field.
