This four strong sketch group got a lot of
critical acclaim last year and they return this year in an effort to
build on their success.
These extremely well turned out quartet
again have a professionally presented hour of material that is
historically set rather than up to date but follow the usual route
of short sharp sketches with the occasional thread running through
some.
An excellent opening sketch of a duel
between two members of an ancient magic circle had me thinking wow,
we are in for a great hour. However most of the material, for me
anyway, was not up to the same standard. That is not to say the
material was poor, it just wasn’t everybody’s cup of tea, mine
included, however they were going down rather better in some areas
than I was seated in.
One slight point, given the sightlines in
their venue, there was a little too much material delivered on the
floor, so it would have only been seen by the front row.
