UNQUALIFIED 2: STILL UNQUALIFIED by Genevieve Hegney and Catherine Moore.
The house light went down, the stage lights appeared, as did the supremely underqualified; give it all they’ve got business partners in hilarity Joanne and kinda best mate Felicity. Henceforth, the audience was thrown headfirst into their madcap lives, which we gobbled up with relish as the wait had been far too long.
They might be carrying briefcases and commanding bigger pay cheques, but straight-talking Joanne and perennially optimistic Felicity are back and STILL UNQUALIFIED in this sequel to 2018’s hilarious hit comedy. It’s been a year since we left Joanne and Felicity singing at a karaoke bar. They now live together, work out of their home office and tackle jobs that require a far greater degree of expertise — which neither of them has. From birth doulas to truck drivers, wedding planners to paralegals, the two women stretch the truth but never risk stretching their friendship beyond repair. The inimitable Genevieve Hegney and Catherine Moore reunite once more with director Janine Watson for this madcap comedy about (still) hanging in there. My best advice is to run, not walk towards this unique comedy experience; you’ll be delighted you did.
