Abbie Rippon, The Reviews Hub, 23rd October 2018Review: Benidorm Live - Theatre Royal, Plymouth
The advantage of seeing the show on stage is that characters who seem too exaggerated on television work much better on stage, where bigger is better.
Kelyn Luther, The Reviews Hub, 23rd October 2018An Evening With Beverly Luff Linn review

Entertainment Focus, 23rd October 2018Zoe Lyons review

CC Skills, 23rd October 2018The Comedy About a Bank Robbery review
The Comedy About a Robbery is not perfect by any means. Some of the jokes are stretched beyond endurance and the show is perhaps a little overlong. However, these quibbles are hardly worth mentioning because the show is an absolute blast.
James Ballands, British Theatre Guide, 23rd October 2018The Comedy About a Bank Robbery - Leeds Grand review
A must see, fast-paced, and high content comedy for anyone who likes farce - something that Mischief Theatre excels at.
Dawn Smallwood, The Reviews Hub, 23rd October 2018The Comedy About a Bank Robbery review
A frantic farce for all the family, The Comedy About a Bank Robbery is a frenzied, fulfilling knockabout which leaves you thoroughly uplifted. It's a perfectly modern pratfall comedy, expertly executed to draw out laughter and thrills a minute. Another breakout hit - catch it whilst it's still on the run.
Samuel Payne, Entertainment Focus, 23rd October 2018An Evening With Beverly Luff Linn review
Director Jim Hosking's 2016 horror debut, The Greasy Strangler, was one of the most grotesquely original exercises in bad taste ever committed to screen. I loved it. This creakier follow-up comedy boasts similar bizarreness, even if it lacks Greasy's compelling central psychology.
