****
Sweet but stealthily vicious; like a candy apple stuffed with razorblades, Lucy Porter is an absolute must see. This show is a refreshing departure from Porter’s usual spiels about hen and stag parties. Instead this show is based around Lucy’s longings, at the age of 33, to become a good person – it is not about Felicity Kendall’s bottom.

Lucy leads you on a delightful trawl through what is good and bad in the world and because of her happy-go-lucky nature even her colourful language seems endearing. Such lovely topics are touched upon including her own funeral, the perils of having junkies for flatmates and Porter even enlightens the audience on the ins and outs of some rather charming sounding fetishes.
