"Altogether the Smirking Sequin offers a well-balanced and fast-paced variety act, with a refreshing mix of physical, stand-up and musical comedy and some very enthusiastic newcomers. With seven acts onstage it's also a credit-crunch friendly evening, so even if some acts don't appeal, you'll still be entertained." - Spoonfed, 26 March 2009
