Stage review Rapid-fire gags in dynamite 1960s-set farce
The Guardian
|May 14, 2025
Vodka martini." "Shaken?" "Yes, but I'll be fine." If groanworthy jokes of that calibre float your boat, The Comedy About Spies, set in early 1960s London, will be plain sailing.
Even if they don't, that needn't put you off: the new show from Mischief, the company behind the smash-hit ... Goes Wrong series, also offers farce, slapstick and multiple callbacks. So much of the script relies on linguistic misunderstandings (sweet/suite, need/knead) that even the most tolerant viewer may become homophone-phobic.
