This satire from Boy Theatre should perhaps be prosecuted under the Trade Descriptions Act. The prospect of a crack trio of rainbow warriors turning around decades of decline and neglect wrought by capitalism is mouthwatering. Yet, the bulk of the show, when it finds its rhythm, revolves around a spoof Ted Talk, in which a trio of boorish city slickers berates the woke audience for not following the same economic corner-cutting and malfeasance that has led to them becoming filthy rich.

Developed in partnership with Curve and the Pleasance, Campitalism is not short on ideas, theatrical flourishes or wit, but these virtues are undermined by a lack of coherence and organisation in the material, which relies too often on yelling and frantic energy.

By far the most involving element comes when the company dials down its decibel levels and each member of the group gives a personal account of the effects of rampant monetarism on their own lives. Some interesting discussion points flash to the fore, about the ways in which the economic system is weighted against the most vulnerable in society, but the show could do with a rigorous dramaturgical overhaul in order to make the most of its well-intentioned premise.

Campitalism: Three Gays Try To Fix The Economy, Pleasance Courtyard, until 31 August, 2.05pm.
