I'm Your Man - Finishes this weekend!

Finally a Sydney Festival show that doesn't suck balls literally, well this was a co production so maybe that's what explains it. So this show is about boxing but for me it was about perving on the very dreamy former NIDA grad John Shrimpton, just delightful.



Aside from the perve fest this was a well acted (via listening to headphones and acting out various itnerviews - random but good) and the set as always at Belvoir Street was just simply wonderful, it felt, smelt and was exactly like a sweaty boxing room at any inner city gym.

I feel with a downstairs room if the set is this awesome and realistic then the show is going to work regardless of how good the story and or acting is.

A less than hour and a half production and a too the point finale this was great. It's been a while since I could rave about live theatre so well to the dreamy John Shrimpton and remainder of the ensemble and production team.

4 stars. (3.5 for John Shrimpton)
