Shane and Eddie: Picking up the Pieces

50-minute avant-garde nightmare beyond redemption

This avant-garde performance possibly follows an obnoxious couple’s attempts to live like plebs. However, it’s difficult to be sure and impossible to care. It must be scripted because the duo have a great knack of not speaking over each other, though the overall effect is of being screamed at by other people’s children in a room descending into hell. Beyond redemption, this is a 50-minute nightmare.

The Store, 556 5375, until 28 Aug, 9.20pm, £7.50–£8.50.

I would completely disagree with the review above, and am quite shocked by the vitriol used in describing it. I thought it was a fun vibrant show that kept the audience laughing throughout and have recommend it to all my friends.
