A show that starts with a sketch that combines some athleticism with advice on mixing yoga with personal finance suggests it's going to contain oddities and imagination. And some decent laughs.
Seven women sat in a row exchanging banter sounds less promising, but turned out to be surprisingly effective at producing funny lines. Women who look too conventionally beautiful, ugly fruit and buying clothes in Lidl all wormed their way into the conversation.
A few improvised sketches followed, with laugh out loud highlights like the audio track for weightless sex and an Italian mama's dieting advice.
The second half followed a similar format, and if it never quite achieved the highs of the first there was still more than enough amusement to stave off any fears of boredom. The vagaries of improv are always such.
There's a mix of nationalities in the group, but their performances suggest long familiarity and confidence in each other's abilities. No stand out talents, no obvious weak links. If you're in Berlin and looking for a decent laugh they'd be a good choice, performing every second Sunday of each month in the Comedy Cafe.
