Review: POLICE COPS IN SPACE, Underbelly Cavendish Square

Police Cops In Space is a space age comedy, creatively adapting the legacy of 80’s cult police and space films to joyous effect.

Review: POLICE COPS: THE MUSICAL, Southwark Playhouse

The US police force perhaps isn’t the most obvious subject for a comedy musical, but Police Cops: The Musical turns an unlikely premise into a undeniable hit. Fresh from a hit run at the Edinburgh Fringe, this slick satire of the US eighties is enjoying yet more success in London. From the minds of trio Zachary Hunt, Nathan Parkinson and Tom Roe comes a full-throttle ride through the cliches of American action movies.

BWW Review: Irrepressibly Zany POLICE COPS a Giddy Ride on Laughter-induced Endorphins

POLICE COPS is pastiche on a grand scale, taking the buddy cop genre, putting a self-aware spin on it and playing tropes that were once taken extremely seriously to the very edge of sheer lunacy. The results are hilarious, as though THE MOD SQUAD were taking on IN THE HEAT OF THE NIGHT in the WILD WILD WEST at RUSH HOUR.
