Well, i am supposed to be sitting in the Jermyn St theatre right now watching Farm Hall about WW2 espionage and nuclear secrets, unfortunately whilst walking up to the theatre at 6.50pm I got a email saying that due to unforeseen circumstances the performance was cancelled. So with a quick dash on a wet and windy Saturday night across to the Ambassador’s theatre, I got a ticket in the Dress Circle for MSAQ with 15 minutes to spare. It was my first time seeing this show so I had absolutely no idea what to expect but what an absolutely brilliant show Rob has put together. A great mix of laughs and tears in equal measure over the 80 minutes. The Disney show at the end was fab.
It really is a beautifully crafted show with great storytelling (and home video clips) and songs (courtesy of Pippa Cleary) performed by Rob. It sped along really nicely and had wished it was longer it was that good. Based on my viewing it thoroughly deserves it Olivier nomination and quite honestly deserves to win. After watching “Medea” this afternoon, MSAQ has rounded off a great double show day.
Rating - 5⭐️

I'd quite like to see this and emailed ATG to ask if they do any last-minute Box Office ticket reductions...but that's a No. Which is really silly because there's still quite a lot of seats available! (There are two rows that are completely unbooked, for example). It's so silly, wouldn't they rather get some money for a £59.50 seat instead of leaving it unsold?
Anyway, maybe I could catch this with a Rush ticket before it closes...I don't have the budget right now to be spending more than £30 on a 1 hour and 15 minute show.

A UK tour? Would love to finally catch this having missed it when it was in the West End. Will keep an eye out to see if it’s heading anywhere near me.

Thanks for the info TallPaul. I was just about to book for HOME MCR when you posted the full tour dates. I'll be booking for Liverpool now instead. |

Having given my viewing at the Ambassadors run last year 5⭐️, tonight’s viewing at the Liverpool Playhouse hasn’t changed that rating. It’s still a great 70 minutes from Rob and the show still hits the mark for me. A nice balance of comedy and harder hitting stuff with some lovely songs chucked in as well. Watching the home video clips, they are even funnier the second time around. The final Disney parade is still great fun and sending everybody out in good spirits. The good folk of Liverpool seemed to really enjoy it with the really positive response from the audience at the end for Rob’s efforts and his message of its ok to be you and stuff everyone else who doesn’t like that!
I would definitely recommend seeing this on tour if you get the chance and at 70 minutes straight through you get home early as well as an added bonus.

Totally agree with review above still a great show saw it in Birmingham after seeing it previously at the ambassadors
We still loved it as much if not more giggling to each other when we knew “ it’s a wool wig “ was coming
The videos and hilarious and moving Rob seemed to be really enjoying himself
All the Birmingham dates sold out which is great hope rest of the tour does so well 🌈🎵👍
