Coco The Time-Travelling Tart is a bunch of dirty, comical fun. With our friendly time travelling guide, we learn much about history and genuinely feel like we have been on one hell of a journey with this glamorous idol.
— Get The Chance (4 out of 5 stars)
Coco’s Time Travelling Tart is crazy, camp and an absolute laugh-a-minute ride through history. It’s funny, silly frivolity that knows exactly what it is doing, even when it looks like everything might be gloriously…
— Pure Life Plus (4 out of 5 stars)
The whole affair has a flung-together panto charm, with entertainingly crappy props and a very game volunteer co-opted to be Coco’s slave boy (take a bow, Tom).
