Not been yet, but found this on theatreboard.co.uk:
"Well I went in knowing nothing and I left having been entertained.
A bit different to my usual choices, but for £10 I can't complain.
Tim Key had a massive line fluff to the point of not only asking for a prompt multiple times during a large speech, he left the stage and did his entrance again twice and still got his words mixed up. It was painful, but good on him for not letting it shake him too much as he was great for the rest of the play. The speech was a very wordy piece and he didn't stop talking for probably over 5 minutes (Rufus Sewell needed a prompt at one point too and preceeded his request with a 'my turn now' before asking). Big up to Paul Ritter getting all the way through without a fluff.
It was the first preview so I can forgive these, especially at £10. At £60 I'd want perfection though.
Funny play."
Our Ruf is polite to a fault!
