The Press on Avocado
Really enjoyable. Great writing, great acting. Fantastic.'
BBC Radio 4
"Raucous cheers and appreciative whistling - Avocado is a fun show. What you want from an evening out - entertainment, pleasure, and a lot of laughter. Acting, direction, script and technique merge together beautifully culminating in a finished product of the highest quality.
Cleverly dark humour: despite the monologues being written by two different writers from different sides of the pond, they share the same themes - loneliness, isolation, allusions to death and suicide, themes explored to great effect.
The actors were fantastic - drawing humour, sympathy and pity all at the same time.
This is, simply, a great show that needs to be watched."
