All New People


Thursday we saw 'All New People', a play written by Scrubs' Zach Braff. Some slices of pizza first across the road at Pepe then settled into our somewhat disappointing seats in the theatre. Yes I will use Seat Monkey next time or whatever it's called.

I probably don't see enough plays and they take a while for me to get into, but it had some laughs and was an entertaining night out. Anyway I'm no theatre critic. I liked the cut away video pieces giving background to the characters stories, liked the dry humour but liked only one of the characters out of the four. Maybe you're not meant to like them all. Also I think the 'sensationally funny' tag sets you up for a rollicking night of laughs when it's more thoughtful than that.

Sadly, like losers we did wait across the road from the stage door for a glimpse of Zach getting into his car. It was more entertaining listening to the girls next to us having an outrageous argument and that kept us hooked waiting longer than we should have. And I gave up my frozen yoghurt chance for that, saddo.
