Original Review:
This sketch show about the trials and tribulations of women in various everyday situations was nothing more than a collection of obvious gags based around uninspiring material.
The two performers - Footlights member Pippa Van Welie and pre-drama school student Christine Morris - failed to energise from the outset.
Interminable costume changes also derailed the pace, though we were 'treated' to a voiced-over slide show of the duo in colourful wigs during those gaps. My, how they flew by.
Fortunately for the performers, the audience was as forgiving as possible - and sat in a frosty silence.

Your reviewer obviously didn't see the same show I saw - or had a sense of humour failure on the day. The sell-out audience that I was part of loved the show - and actively participated throughout. Rather than settling for cheap gags and toilet humour, the duo produced some excellent satirical pieces, which to any Fringe regular were apt and close to the bone. I look forward to seeing their next show.
