Name of show
Rom Com Con
Genre
Cabaret
Venue
Canons Gait Inn
Date
8.8.12



Review
A two hander with minimal set. 
Mace and Burton are two young performers and in their show: Rom Com Con they discuss and joke with the aid of various projected lists and images, the conundrum of how two young women might set about meeting or finding their ‘Mr Right’...  Having discarded other methods they embark on a journey using Romantic Comedy films as the means of finding their ‘man.’  Their conclusion or finding is in the title…. It’s a comic exercise doomed to failure and Mace and Burton present it in a lively, friendly way with much self-deprecation and honesty.





Why is the work suitable or not suitable / ready for rural touring ?
The concept is good but would need to discuss further how it would work in community halls
Why would you book them ?  or  Why wouldn’t you book them ?
Yes possibly
Why would it be worth pursuing this company to consider work in the future? Or not  ?
Yes possibly
