Random Comic Material Alert!
This is a Red Room double-header of unpredictable comic import and impact...Jonno Katz offers up a one-man show about one woman - a New Zealand manicurist. Katz is an hilarious, energetic tour de force. Definitely flag this one for review. Physical theatre at its best.

Village Voice, July 2 2002

Katz gives a scintillating performance and is someone to look out for in the future.
