Pure English black humour is offered
here, mixed with pantomime, dance and even ventriloquilism, set in an
incomparable, shrill picture of feminity....One thing has to be said : we are
talking here about pure nonsense. Because this nonsence is declared
it never becomes embarrassing, What luck then, that Krissie Illing
is a mistress of her discipline...great fun. (Mainzer
Rheinzeitung)
With rubber-like mimicry and a
skilled dance technique she keeps her public up to speed. (Kölnische Rundschau)
Krissie Illing's slapstick is
wonderfully silly and tragically funny. Simply fantastic.

Wilmas wonderful washsaloon - The comedienne Krissie Illing,
provides not only the opportunity to laugh, but also shows that this
piece has it's roots in pitch-black English-comedy and slapstick.

in embarrassing. The audience follows these finely observed scenes
of everday life with salvos of laughter. (Erkelenzer Volkszeitung)
...and huge enthusiasm thanks to
fantastically funny mimicry and mime...not a dry eye in the house. (Rheinische Post)
She just has to take a sip from
her wine glass and she makes her audience in Hamburg's St Pauli
theater whoop with joy. The British comedienne, Krissie Illing plays
the tounge-tied, flirting, provocative Wilma. (Hamburger Abendblatt)
She looks through bifocal glasses,
has been given a pudding basin haircut and squeezed herself into a
dress that perhaps would look wonderful on Marylin Monroe. All this
transforms her from a shy small town girl into a complete disaster.
But the funniest thing in the world is when Wilma holds her breath.
Great Comedy is that simple. (Berliner Zeitung)
