Equal parts awkward, absurd and surprisingly tender, it\u2019s a fringe show that will leave you questioning what you just watched on your way out of the theatre.<\/p>\n<p>What starts as a meeting between two men at a coffee shop quickly descends into the realm of the absurd. At the beginning, you wonder, \u2018Is this a job interview?\u2019 \u2018Are they on a date?\u2019 Why is one in a suit and the other so casually dressed? Mentions of queer pop culture send your expectations one way, only to be completely caught off guard on multiple occasions.<\/p>\n<p>As a play, it\u2019s certainly an entertaining watch. The 60-minute runtime flies by, leaving you wondering how the situation between this unlikely pair will turn out. Every time you think you\u2019ve worked out where it\u2019s heading, the script pivots in another unexpected direction.<\/p>\n<p>Both performers, Harry Freeman as Adam and George Miller as Luke, carry the production with impressively awkward chemistry, navigating between comedy, tension and vulnerability without ever losing the audience. The dialogue is funny, charming and shocking all at the same time. You find yourself laughing throughout. Though sometimes, that\u2019s more to do with how uncomfortable you feel rather than the play\u2019s witty writing.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, you can\u2019t help but be completely drawn in by the relationship between these two men. The first scene is a masterclass in awkward silences and nervous energy. The second, a series of funny and absurd faux pas made by both. \u00a0In the final, a sense of vulnerability lands between them.<\/p>\n<p>Dark? Definitely. Funny? Absolutely. Absurd? Completely. But beneath all of that is a story about two people looking for connection in the strangest of places. If you find yourself looking to end Pride Month with a play that brings together queer themes, great acting and a touch of absurdism, then Some Masterchef Sh*t is definitely worth a watch.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reviewed on 29 June 2026<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\tThe Reviews Hub Star Rating <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Writer: Liam High Director: James Cave Liam High\u2019s Some Masterchef Sh*t is a two-man show that takes the&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1060997,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[7757],"tags":[748,393,96855,4884,291211,291212,291213,291214,257,6080,291215,2764,16,15],"class_list":["post-1060996","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-london","tag-britain","tag-england","tag-george-miller","tag-great-britain","tag-harry-freeman","tag-he-glitch","tag-james-cave","tag-liam-high","tag-london","tag-review","tag-some-masterchef-sht","tag-theatre","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/116842663974684765","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1060996","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1060996"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1060996\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1060997"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1060996"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1060996"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1060996"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
