Unfortunately, this is the case with Bourgeois and Maurice – a triumph of image over content.

At first I thought I’d overdosed on cabaret. Then I realised I actually loathed the plinky-plunky musical arrangements, satirical lyrics that said next to nothing, lame to nonexistent gags and excruciatingly awkward relationship with the audience.

Rating: * *

Until 26 August. Tomorrow 10:15pm.
