Kerry Godliman, Touring review
She's canny on the differences between "girl" friendships" and "bloke" friendships (or indeed man flu and woman flu), and the idiocy of the trend for adult colouring books; she also throws in some emoji jokes for good measure. This is standard fare for comics, but Godliman, nicely foul-mouthed when she wants to be, is caustic when required.

The two-hour show is fast-paced and, at times, almost scattergun in its breadth of subject matter.

You would think by now his trolls would know better than to take him on, but they don't. It's just material for his next show.
Veronica Lee, The Arts Desk, 12th May 2017Ayesha Hazarika, Soho Theatre review
What a day to open your political stand-up show, entitled State of the Nation, a few hours after Theresa May had announced a snap election. If Ayesha Hazarika needed any extra material, yesterday morning's events would certainly have supplied it.
