Unexpected, clever and laugh out loud. A truly fun trip led by a brilliant actor delivering scintillating and off the wall theatre. So well written. Recommend Emerson Lake return next season with more laugh out loud erotic poetry. Definitely following.
Rick’s Emerson Lake is irreverent, inspired, and as charmingly invasive as Knotweed. The audience of mostly women who attended the show I saw, laughed throughout. Delivered in rhyming couplets, with embedded advertising snippets, Lake’s erotic poetry reveals a slippery admirer of the salacious without boundaries. Emerson Lake belongs in the kind of bar we’ve all stumbled into, but would never admit to having frequented. – Laurie Fyffe
Very clever and funny if you’re in the mood for some 18+ humor.
