A joyous new musical…. Uked! is a show you could see again and again. It’s that charming. …‘Uked! draws parallels with Muriel’s Wedding, Once and Mamma Mia.

I didn’t want it to end! Can we do it all again?

…a two hander with Josephine Birch, a very natural and warm performer playing the main character Karla and Ian Stenlake, a well-known stage and screen actor, and a clear drawcard, playing all the characters she meets. Stenlake does so well, moving, with a lightness of touch from one character to the next… Well directed by Ali Bendall, this show was a pleasure.

Uked! strikes all the right chords. Warm, wonderfully zany and bursting with infectious energy, it is the kind of production that has audiences tapping their feet, laughing out loud and wondering whether it’s finally time to learn the ukulele.

It was so bloody good. I definitely got Uked! and it was fun.

Uked! builds from Karla’s pithy sofa storytelling to a joyous musical jamboree, with a finale befitting this life-affirming fable.

Ali Bendall has directed this production with a sense of collaboration. All the performers have a wonderful ease with each other.
