Praise for Martin Blackburn
‘In a theatrical landscape awash with thought-provoking gay drama, it’s refreshing to see that gay comedy also has its place.’
‘Here’s hoping for further escapades from these colourful characters that we’ve come to know and love over the years – they’ve shagged and bitched their way around the world and into our hearts – long may it continue!’
‘Get your thrusters set to take you to Mardi Gras in the heart of Vauxhall, and I guarantee you will enjoy the ride.’
