It’s Not Me, It’s Definitely You: The Songs of Amy Winehouse and Lily Allen
It’s Not Me, It’s Definitely You: The Songs of Amy Winehouse and Lily Allen is a returning FringeWorld favourite which looks at the dilemmas of modern relationships.
Written and performed by Lisa Woodbrook, this is a beautiful blend of song and very natural and funny stand-up comedy. Lisa, who is lovely to listen to, can really hold the crowd and her interactions between songs are funnier and more surprising than you would normally expect to hear in cabaret.
Open, friendly and extremely personable, Lisa has a strong and beautiful voice and her Australian accented renditions of Lily Allen and Amy Winehouse hits feel fresh and fun.
Lisa is accompanied by the very likeable Joshua James Webb, who adds colour and flair. Lighting and sound mix on this show was second to none - which given the limited technical preparation time in any fringe festival, is particularly impressive - kudos to the FringeWorld Tech Team lead by Darian.
It’s Not Me, It’s Definitely You: The Songs of Amy Winehouse and Lily Allen may not be the best choice for a first date, given its wry and frank look at commitment or lack of it - but is a great Fringe choice for those looking for an easy to watch, beautifully sung hour of fun.
