Review: COWBOIS, Royal Court Theatre
by Cindy Marcolina - January 18, 2024
All in all, Cowbois isn’t a bad play. It’s a fun and gimmicky queer-affirming semi-comedy that makes for a good night out if you’re willing to close an eye here and there. It’s weird and long, but it means well.

by Kat Mokrynski - January 18, 2024
“Make a noise if you’ve ever watched porn before!” From the start, you can tell that Martin Urbano: Apology Comeback Tour is going to be a weird one.
