Just been to see a great political comedy

Which isn't a headline you'll read every day. It's called Follow My Leader and is an extended song and dance satire of the Iraq war positions of Bush & Blair. Never holding back, it is at times rude and foul mouthed, yet always quick-witted and sharp. The play is interspersed with supposed scenes from the pentagon, conversations between Bush and Blair, a press briefing by Comical Ali, and visits on Tony Blair by God (with whom Blair also has a 'special relationship'). It's a must see, if only to get the visuals, as it's a triumph of high energy performance with a semi-political message.

"The two self-appointed heroes of democracy and Christianity congratulate themselves on ridding the world of dictatorship. Meanwhile, their war activates a global clash of cultures waged with words of mass destruction and smoking guns.

This hilarious, savage and thought-provoking satire follows the development of the so-called war on terror from 9/11 right up to the present day. Along the way, Follow My Leader asks awkward questions about Britain´s role as faithful poodle of the United States. "
