I was pleasantly surprised with this show and it was a nice change from your typical Fringe show. Think of this show as your late night wikipedia binge or a random educational video you stumbled on youtube that you ended up subscribing to.

Was impressed about how he was able to repeat everything without a script! All the stories mentioned were well researched and well recited. Looking forward to reading the book when released.

Went on a whim, thoroughly enjoyed it!
Well written, well researched, erudite and informative, with subtle humour.
Matthew knows his stuff and warmed into the presentation on this first performance.
Get there early and enjoy a coffee and cake.
PS performed in an airy room with daylight and space.
Pleasurable educational entertainment. An hour well spent.
