Park Theatre
Clifton Terrace, Finsbury Park, London N4 3JP, United Kingdom London

When Colin receives an anonymous package, he is bemused and appalled by what he finds inside.

He should just ignore it… But who would send him such a thing – and why did they put it in a cake box?

Colin immediately finds himself battling all-new levels of existential angst. He’s really not built for this sort of scrutiny, and his instinctive response is to trawl through his entire life – turning everything over – convinced that he can channel Poirot and unmask the offending sender. But as his sister Lisa and her husband Brian desperately scramble to save him from heading down this particularly murky rabbit-hole, it isn’t long before Colin’s list of possible suspects has gotten way out of control and he’s ready to do whatever it takes to smoke the culprit out.

The Gift is an irreverent comedy that unashamedly dives into the murky waters of past transgressions and modern-day vengeance, all-the-while fully prepared to get low down and dirty in the process. Because what should you do when someone tries to seriously upset your applecart? Should you take it in your stride? See the funny side? Or rest at nothing until the perpetrator is found and made to pay?

FEATURED REVIEWS FOR The Gift

Review: The Gift, Park Theatre
6 / 10

I think I nearly smiled about half a dozen times in total. That’s not the fault of the cast, who try very hard indeed to find the comedy in Dave Florez’ script, and for many in the press night audience it clearly worked. Perhaps it played better in the Stalls than in the Circle where I was sat enjoying a bird’s eye view of the top of the actors’ heads, or perhaps it’s just a question of taste. After the show I met a lawyer who had found the show funny and relatable – I asked him if that was down to the script or the performances and he said it was a bit of both. Suffice it to say that if slightly ridiculous characters and the phrase “vegan activism” float your comedy boat, this could well be right up your alley.

The Gift, Park Theatre Review
9 / 10

t is not often I find a comedy laugh out loud funny but this is exactly what this was. It is the perfect remedy for the grey skies of winter. It is incredibly hard to cater to everyone’s taste but the whole room was positively beaming at the end of the show. This is one of those rare gems of a production where every piece falls into place to create magic.
