How to Survive a Zombie Apocalypse

After Dark

Unless Simon Pegg and Nick Frost are involved, zombie themed offerings are not usually my bag and a genre I ordinarily keep my distance from. However after experiencing a wonderfully weird seminar with Dr Dale and his illustriously eccentric team I may think twice next time. The clan engaged with their audience as they arrived, commendably, and intrigued with what they were about to deliver. The originality and improvisation were fantastic, taking into account some overly enthusiastic audience suggestions that potentially could have made life very difficult for them. Having chatted briefly to a cast member about the show in a bar last week, being sent to actually review it was a coincidental and lucky treat.
