Thanks for the feedback, I noticed its on until September and there have been quite a few performances with tickets, so was thinking it quite likely there will be more,thought it might be something a bit different to take the kids to during the summer hols which start next week if anymore tickets are released, the first email I got from SFF billed it as a show for kids..........anything to keep them entertained on the cheap!

It's actually been offered up for free tickets numerous times. I suspect there will be more to come as the show is scheduled to close end of August

I really liked it, well written, very topical and the juggling was brilliant. They do a segment where they take 3 randomly chosen objects and juggle them at the same time. The night I went it was a cycling helmet, toilet roll and tea pot. Good for kids too!

Today the items were a jumping rope, a boom box and a chicken (yes, a whole raw featherless chicken!) :D
My bf and I thought the show was very adequate for children and we weren't bored at any time, but we didn't find the juggling that impressive apart from a couple of stunts (this includes the chicken!)

lool yes there certainly must be pretty massive variance in the popularity from night to night. Some of the itunes nights only have one decent band in the playlist, and theres some mediocrity as evidenced by Dry the River in the first week.

In contrast to the mediocre theres Coldplay, Foo Fighters, Moby etc.
fav 5 films of the year - Tenet, Bill n Ted 3, Invisible Man, JoJo Rabbit, ?
