Soho theatre, London These deftly sprung riffs on extended family and motherhood gain in power when mayhem offsets the tightly controlled setThe last time I saw Janine Harouni perform she was eight months pregnant and delivering a show about imminent parenthood. It may not surprise you to learn that her first show since is about actual parenthood, of a now 18-month-old boy, with help from her visiting Lebanese- and Irish-American parents. Childrearing may not take a village in This Is What You Waited For, but it takes an extended family – which prompts reflection from our host on how she was mothered, and what kind of mother she can be.Not for the first time with Harouni, I found the smoothness and control of her hour on that theme almost too neat. A proponent of “gentle parenting”, she practises gentle and measured comedy too.
