Trade ReviewKaty Wix is very funny. Like all the best comedy, most of it is rooted in everyday experience... We shall now see more of them in graduate showcases – which will be a welcome and entertaining development. * The Stage *
I enjoyed Katy Wix's first book of monologues and now she's given us 40 more. She is often very funny - even on the page - and in the hands of a skilled performer some of these new speeches would be pure gold. She's very good at the apparently random deadpan opening: "I was in a band", "I never feel the cold", "I've got to pee". The skill, as ever, is to be deadly, earnestly serious about something laughably, perhaps pitiably, trivial. There's plenty here for anyone wanting a fresh comic audition speech or for anyone brave enough to be assembling one-woman show material. * The Stage *
