I’m in London for a few days and I decided to go to SOHO tonight. I had a quick bite at Subway and after that walked around town a bit and finally decided to go to the theatre down at Dean Street. I should have spent the night preparing slides for one of the conferences I have to present at in the next coming months, but I really didn’t feel like that. The theatre is called SOHO Theatre and I went to Sophie Woolley her show called ‘When to run’. It was a really fast-paced and great show. It’s about four women runners all running for their own and different reasons and they are connected through this guy that looks a lot like Tony Soprano.

Sophie is really good at creating different characters and using only a very minimalist setup (a little bench is all she uses) all she uses is her voice and her face to create a great comedy story.

Oh, it’s just Sophie on her own by the way and there’s five characters. I’ll leave the rest up to your imagination, or to find out when you’re in town and feel like seeing her show.
