SUMMARY:Flo & Joan (The Steamworks)
DESCRIPTION:The time has come for critically acclaimed musical comedy duo Flo & Joan to write another bio as they make their highly anticipated return to the stage with a brand-new show. \n“Gosh\, they are almost like a real band” (Bruce Dessau\, Beyond a Joke). The pair will try and take up as much of the stage and as little of your patience as possible as they use another “real band’s” setlist to write their own show – ruminating on themes such as ‘what is music?’\, ‘how do you be a band?’\, and ‘is comedy?’ in the sharp-tongued\, deadpan way they have become accustomed to. \nAs seen on Live at the Apollo\, The Royal Variety Performance\, Comic Relief’s Red Nose Day Live 2023 and their own comedy special ‘Alive on Stage’ for Amazon Prime. \n“Musical comedy hasn’t been in such safe hands for years” The List \n“truly exceptional” Rolling Stone \n“extraordinary… #1 Comedy Show of 2024” The Guardian \n“these intricately crafted\, flawlessly performed numbers will have you howling with laughter one minute\, wiping away a tear the next” The Telegraph ★★★★ \n“Flo & Joan coat every moment with jokes\, jokes\, jokes” The Times ★★★★ \n“They’ve just crammed in jokes… brilliantly written\, superbly performed” The Stage ★★★★★ \n“[they] briefly appear to be a jolly musical double act\, but tear that to pieces about two bars into the first\, perfectly timed song” Sunday Times ★★★★ \n“Their style is stiletto sharp\, their diction perfect as they race through their complex rhymes” Evening Standard \n“an absolute blast” Chortle ★★★★
