- The Toxic Avenger
Good as the ensemble was, this night belonged to the leading ladies, Brittany Gray and Louise Pitrie. Gray as Sarah layers the part with a winning mix of comic vulnerability and corn fed raunch, informing a character that’s about way more than bumping into things while doing amazing work in promoting the sexuality of the visually impaired. Gray’s an electrifying performer and owns the stage every time she takes its centre, always putting just that little extra shimmy into every shake of every dance routine.

All girl next door wholesome allure with a pleasant and nuanced singing voice, Gray’s the star coming out of the box. In more ways than one, since Sarah’s thing for prancing around in short t-shirts kept a hot little peep show going that had more than one guy craning round his date's head to catch a better look.
