Jack Mink

Billed as ‘a dark theatrical comedy’, Mink’s Making Light is painfully bereft of solid laughs. Remove the expectation of comedy from the equation and it’s a weirdly fulfilling theatre piece, as Mink free-associates and travels to very dark places. Due to the improvisational nature of the performance, it’s hard to say exactly what to expect, but it won’t be easily forgotten.
