I Kissed A Frog And...It Gave Me Herpes

Chesterlass Productions

Well, haven't we all? Kissed a frog that is. This is an absolutely fantastic little show, and not to be missed. Anna Victoria's romp through a series of misadventures seeking that elusive soul mate is captivating, jaw-droppingly honest, hysterical and unique. It was so good that I hardly felt seated when the 30 minute show was already over. The blurb promises "a play about love, kebabs and Viking reenactment warriors", and asks "Is it worth catching an STD in pursuit of the perfect man?", but don't be put off by that, or the title, as I was, because you'll leave feeling like you have seen an emerging talent before she makes it big, and that's very exciting.

Upstairs at Three and Ten, 5, 10, 11, 18, 25 May,, times vary, £6.00 (£5.00), fpp 41
