Lights Of London Productions

Worth going for the singing and setting alone, Missy D's powerful voice fills the intimate underground space with classic tunes. Changing characters from chavs to centenarians to provide a good old fashioned cabaret of many acts, but just one versatile performer. The sketches, including Adam and Eve-enders, are fun and slide smoothly into songs, but perhaps a little more could be done to fill the pauses for costume changes. In the end it is the singing that is Missy D's forte, rich and sensual, she warmly embraces the audience with flirty asides between verses. If you get your kick out of Cole Porter this is the place to go to enjoy it, sitting around tables, sipping on champagne.
