Dolphins Wrestling
A large group of attractive, funny people, who invest too much time into setting up a joke and not enough time into actually making it funny. Also, the premises of some of these jokes have heritage status.

Fly Me to Baboon
Almost traditional sketch comedy, but whereas most troupes do it set-up… punchline, Fly Me to Baboon prefer it as punchline, punchline, set-u… Nah, another punchline. Jokes fly like hair from mangy dogs on rollercoasters, and most of them work.

Who does she think she is?
Although on the surface this little snippet of drama seems a tad ‘sex-in-the-city-esque’ its actually got a lot more substance to offer than first meets the eye. With an impressive use of multimedia and a strong all-female cast delivering witty lines, Who Does She Think She Is? captures the fickleness of females and the trials we often face when trying to fit in. Ultimately it’s a tale with a strong moralistic pulse throughout; treat others as you wish to be treated yourself. Nice…
A very neat and concise debut piece of theatre from Beez Works; Who Does She Think She Is?’ runs until Wednesday, 17th August as part of the Camden Fringe at the Etcetera Theatre.

Reviewed: Museum of London's Roman London app
The Londinum iPhone and iPad app from the Museum of London was released a couple of weeks ago. It’s free, and it includes a “Roman walk”, which uses Google maps to guide you through the vias and tabernas of the old place. Last week I walked that walk; now I shall talk it.

No Man by Deptford Goth
This positively reeks of the sort of music enjoyed by the sort of people who get the backs up of the rowdier teenage residents of E8 and E9, but don’t let that put you off.
