Sensible Footwear (5 STARS) veteran Alison Field is back with a bevy of buxom beauties who’ve got it and flaunt it! Burlesque artist Miss La Muse, Celeste (Wonderbar! 4 STARS) Sansregret, stand-up comic Heather Witherden and Kim (Waiting for Aidan 4 STARS) Zeglinski show and tell all the trials and titillations of breast ownership.
A first-rate comedy about secondary sexual characteristics.
Five fantastic comedic performers come together in Breast Friends to entertain the estrogen-rich audience with the woes of changing rooms; the yearning of adolescence (for breasts, that is) and God’s sometimes twisted sense of humour in response; rants about breastfeeding; and a serious moment to remember cancer survivors and the dead.
It’s a show for women, from beginning to end - even with the tassel-twirling dance by Miss La Muse. Full of cheek and spunk with some rip-roaring laughs, we’re not sure men would get it, but we sure do! Local comic Heather Witherden is a stand-out in this one!
