Crabs Gone Wild

This show had a lot of fun things to offer. The cast were clearly enjoying themselves, I loved the Monty Python reference, there were some very fun sight gags with costumes and such, and even the central joke to the show was funny if you enjoy Austin Powers level humour. I just wish they had used that central joke more sparingly. If they had varied the innuendo a bit more, or just said it fewer times even, I would have enjoyed this show a lot more. Unfortunately, no matter how funny a joke is, if the same one is told the same way an average of once per minute, it gets a bit grating after a while.

The highlight of this show was the audience member absolutely losing this shit at the same joke over and over again. Thankfully shorter than the advertised 60 minutes, the show could have still done with trimming, as the “catching crabs/catching crabs” misunderstanding joke wore extremely thin extremely quickly. Unless you enjoy audience watching, there’s not a lot here unfortunately, despite the obvious passion from all involved.
