Fuccbois: Live in Concert
This is epic, relentless, joyful nonsense of the highest order, the kind of evening that relegates your headache to a distant memory and puts whatever you were worrying about on pause for a very welcome hour or so.
There are shows that ask a lot of you. They want you to sit with discomfort, wrestle with ideas, leave feeling slightly altered and in need of a long walk home to process it all (which admittedly I do love). Fuccbois: Live in Concert at Soho Theatre is not one of those shows, and it does not need to be. This is epic, relentless, joyful nonsense of the highest order, the kind of evening that relegates your headache to a distant memory and puts whatever you were worrying about on pause for a very welcome hour or so.
The Fuccbois, the world's biggest boyband, are on the final leg of their farewell tour. The frosted tips are on the line, the pelvic thrusts are numbered, and the professional and personal rivalries between Brandon, Brendan, Tyler, The Other Brendan and their long suffering manager Micaela are threatening to derail the whole thing before the encore. What follows is part concert, part
comedy, part pitch perfect satire of toxic dating culture, ghosting, fandom and the deeply unhinged logic of modern situationships, all delivered with the kind of commitment that makesyou wonder whether everyone on that stage is simply never going to stop believing in boyband culture.
The show is all of the best and worst parts of JLS, One Direction, Backstreet Boys and 5 Seconds of Summer compressed into one unapologetically chaotic hour. The choreography is sharp, the vocals are genuinely excellent, and the original music is the sort of thing that sits in your head on the tube home and makes you want to go straight to a club and spend the rest of the evening listening to 2010 classics at a volume that is probably inadvisable on a weeknight.
Megan Walshe as Tyler is a particular standout, bringing a physical comedy and loose limbed chaos to the role that the audience cannot take their eyes off.
The collective energy on that stage is infectious in the way that only something deeply and sincerely silly can be. The satire is sharp without ever becoming smug, which is a harder balance to strike than it looks, and it does so with enough warmth that you end up laughing with it rather than at it.
Fuccbois does not demand much from its audience beyond a willingness to lean fully into the fangirl madness and surrender to the chaos. It just asks you to have an absolutely brilliant time, and on that front it delivers without fault.
