Reviews of 10,000 Decisions:
“She is hilarious! Self-depreciating but not self-hating, Perkins’ inability to decide in love, lust, food – thankfully not politics – will probably scrape close to the bone – Perkins is all of us.As a comedian, she is great at getting an audience on side but it feels so much more than that. Perkins is conversational and honest, she is just like that funny friend who comes to you with their love-life issues and gets drunk with you.“ ★★★★ Fourth Wall (Perth FRINGE WORLD)
"For a brain-tickling evening, let the talented (and very clever) @robynHperkins teach you the neuroscienctific implications of losing your girlfriend's gerbils. Brilliantly witty with some fantastic stories along the way. Highly recommend." ★★★★ Fringe Biscuit
“Robyn Perkins blends science, comedy and a little hint of philosophy into an excellent show.” ★★★★ Scots Reviewer
“Science and humour are two terms I don’t usually put together, however ROBYN PERKINS manages to combine the two into a fun, interesting and entertaining show – and an intriguing trip into the psyche of the night’s audience.” ★★★★ Winning at Failing
"For a highly entertaining, thought-provoking and strangely feel-good outing get your tickets now!!" (Buxton Fringe full review here)
