Mini Review David Austin's autobiographical account of being down, out and hooked
on crack in Belize has a crude power, even if it's not really
insightful about addiction or human behaviour, and not really
theatre. Sometimes annoyingly smug and cocky, Austin knows how to
spin a tale and his powers of description are often vivid, even if
there's too much repetition in the 90 minute show.
