Frankie Thompson brings stomps and roars to Soho Theatre

Three new performance teasers pair Horrible Things with Jonathan Oldfield's promise to impersonate audience drawings.

Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.

Frankie's got the Friday feeling⁠

A black T-shirt says "disco", but Frankie Thompson's routine has rather more growl than glitter. She kicks, spins and stomps before leaning towards the seated audience with monster-like noises. There are no spoken words, just a performer making herself very difficult to ignore.

"Frankie's got the Friday feeling⁠" was Soho Theatre's most-watched new upload, drawing roughly 4,400 views. It is a promotional glimpse of Thompson's Horrible Things, which returned to the venue on Monday. A second teaser, "wholesomely horrible x", marked opening night and is now drawing the most daily views of the channel's recent videos.

The other new upload asks "What do Daleks do? How do Daleks get upstairs?⁠" Jonathan Oldfield's show explicitly promises neither answer. Instead, the description offers something more personal and potentially stranger: impersonations of the audience's drawings.

Across the channel, viewing is a little below its usual daily level, while the subscriber total stayed unchanged over the week. Fellow comedy venues are having a busier spell: Hot Water Comedy Club's daily views are more than double its usual level, and Don't Tell Comedy is also above its normal rate.

There is room for cabaret in Soho Theatre's ongoing viewing, too. September's "You either know it, or you don't", featuring Salty's The Neutral Milk Hotel Show, remains among the uploads gathering the most daily views, alongside the two newer show teasers.
