Pickle Jar review
The first half of the show is straight-up, laugh-out-loud comedy, as Miss reflects on everything from her meagre Instagram follower count, to the night her ex broke up with her (shortly after advising her to get tested for chlamydia), to her fumbling attempts - egged on by best friend Mairead - at flirtation with Mr Ellis, the much-fancied food tech teacher.
Liz Dyer, My Theatre Mates, 30th October 2018Pickle Jar review
As a gentle comedy about a meek teacher trying to inspire unruly schoolgirls Pickle Jar works very well, but as a tale about sexual violence Pickle Jar needs a little more finesse.
Richard Maguire, The Reviews Hub, 28th October 2018Pickle Jar review
