Unfortunately I agree with all the bad reviews and none of the good... Boring, repetitive, banal 'humour' - possibly attempting to emulate silent, slapstick B&W comedies (and succeeding in THAT at least - if nothing else!) I found the whole first half literally cringe-worthy and repeated glances exchanged with my partner seemed to confirm that. We seriously considered leaving at the interval - would have left after 20 minutes if we hadn't pre-ordered our interval drinks! Anyway decided to stay until the end in case the performance improved - sadly it didn't, continuing in the same vein with more unfunny jokes and contrived slapstick of the lowest calibre. Avoid this play unless you're a masochist, but then again lots of people have left positive reviews so maybe judge for yourself if you don't mind gambling the price of the tickets!
