Smut – Free (Desiree Burch and Greg Walloch)
By Maryam Ansari | Published on Tuesday 30 August 2011
What can I say that the title does not already imply? If filth is what you like, then here is a group of performers with promises to deliver the lewdest jokes, crudest anecdotes, and even talks about the enigmatic “mangina”. However, a line was crossed at one point from dirty to just plain offensive, with a shocking reference to a rapist fantasy. Humorous moments, scarce as they were, appeared once or twice, but the real feature came at the very end, with a light-hearted and consciously ridiculous dance routine. Remember though, if it is good, clean, fun you seek, or even just genuine fun, make sure you are nowhere near ‘The Hive’ on a Festival afternoon at 5pm.
Laughing Horse at The Hive, 5 – 28 Aug (not 10, 17, 24), 5.00pm (6.00pm), free, fpp152.
