Burns and Allen: Comedy Duo

Dog and Pony Shows—Tom Hendry Warehouse

A tribute steep in wistful nostalgia, Burns and Allen was an endearing trek through the lives of one of the strongest acts of the era. Through little interludes we were given an insight into the lives of the pair behind the scenes, but the comedy was at the forefront as it should be. It’s a good piece- the source material is good, and the delivery was damn near perfect. While the unexpected introduction of audience participation lended some awkwardness here and there, the performers were able to smooth things out expertly and get us right back into the action. I left the theatre warm, and a little nostalgic for a time I never actually knew.
