Flat & the Curves bring their outrageous musical comedy to Didcot

Award-winning musical comedy trio Flat & the Curves bring their gloriously outrageous show to Didcot this November.

Forget the rose-tinted spectacles – the Rosé Tinted team are taking a rather more honest look at the good, the bad and the blurry bits of getting older.

Award-winning musical comedy trio Flat & the Curves bring their riotous show to Cornerstone Arts Centre in Didcot on 12th November 2026, promising big voices, sharp lyrics and plenty of laughs. The show asks a deceptively simple question: were the best years actually the ones we can’t quite remember?

The answer, judging by the trio’s description of Rosé Tinted, may involve a few hangovers, a handful of trips to A&E and, yes, a divorce.

Three women with enormous voices take audiences on a musical journey through the things their mothers warned them about, tackling ageing, relationships, friendship and the general chaos of being a grown-up with plenty of wit and a healthy disregard for good taste.

And they’re not short of impressive credentials. Flat & the Curves have appeared on the BBC and were named among the British Comedy Guide’s best-reviewed shows at the Edinburgh Fringe.

Their reviews are equally enthusiastic, with the Sunday Express describing them as “the most dynamic group to hit the comedy circuit in 40 years”, while The Scotsman praised their “electrifying, outstanding, powerhouse cabaret”.

Their style sits somewhere between musical theatre, cabaret and stand-up, with original songs at its heart – making for a show that is as musically accomplished as it is funny.

The trio themselves describe Rosé Tinted as being for anyone who has ever wondered whether their best days are behind them. But rather than wallow in nostalgia, they turn the whole idea on its head, celebrating the ridiculousness of life as it actually happens.

And if you’re a fan of Fascinating Aïda, there’s a particularly appealing comparison: Flat & the Curves describe themselves as the “unruly nieces” of musical comedy’s grande dames. Expect the same love of clever songwriting and glorious harmonies, but with a rather more chaotic family gathering.

With the festive season approaching, November can sometimes feel like the point at which everyone starts counting down to Christmas. Why not press pause, gather your friends and enjoy a proper night out first?

Flat & the Curves: Rosé Tinted is at Cornerstone Arts Centre, Didcot, and is suitable for ages 16+.

Tickets and information are available from Cornerstone Arts Centre.
