Cluedo 2 - The Next Chapter Reviews

TomW from London, England

ODD AND NOT ENTERTAINING

This should have been a great show but turned out to be odd and not very entertaining . From the start the characters were annoying with cliched accents and in the case of Plum very variable ones too. The character of Black as an aging rock star almost made me murder him so it was a relief when somebody else did. The character of Mustard had a very odd Deep South accent and the much repeated Al/Hal Green joke ran for far too long. There were odd choreographed interludes and much overacting with the cast not really working together . The writing was very 80s with many of the jokes being 60s based but not in a good way. I do hope they get it together as the tour continues or it’s going to be a slog around Britain!

NOT VERY FUNNY

It was very slow paced. The jokes really didn't land for me. There was one joke that I think mocked people with ptsd. Very outdated comedy. The movement choreography between scene where SO awkward and went on forever. Miss Scarlett was very quiet and one-tone/flat.

MAYBE 2 GOOD ACTORS IN TOTAL

Not too funny- they tried too hard. We still had a good laugh. Unfortunately muss Scarlett wasn't a good actress at all, sweet face bit not string enough for this role

Lisa S from Brighton,

PAINFUL

Poor acting, very slow a stifled. Not funny at all. Need to pick this up as you tour the country guys otherwise it could kill your careers.

M.Todd from Hull

AMATEUR DRAMATICS

Poor acting, poor script, not funny. The cook was the only one trying to save the show. Miss Scarlet and colonel Mustard should stick to T.V. acting

J Smith from Shrewsbury

OH DEAR…

I’ve seen some great shows at our local theatre. Cluedo 2 wasn’t one of them. The cast tried hard but a dreadful dated and unfunny script left me eagerly awaiting the final curtain. Laboured jokes that might have raised a titter 40 years ago just don’t cut it these days. i actually felt sorry for the actors flogging this theatrical dead horse. Shame.

A TALE OF 2 HALVES

I concur with most of the previous reviews. Really disappointing based on the standard set by the original Cluedo. Mrs White by far the vest performance. It could easily have been so much better with perhaps some different direction or perhaps recasting (Miss Scarlett), the script also left a lot to be desired. The post interval performance was marginally better but on the whole we wished we'd stayed at home - Shane
