Chocolate can enhance any number of occasions but add it to music, theatre and comedy and you've got a potent mix of pleasures.

That's the view of Amanda Waring, whose one-woman show combines all these delights and more.

"It's an hour straight and everybody should be there," she declares excitedly. "If you've got the blues then come down, have some chocolate and have a laugh."

The West End actress's cunning tactic of handing out chocolate at the door is guaranteed to put audiences in a frivolous mood, a gesture of far greater generosity than Waring received from Disney while plotting her solo adaptation of Joanna Harris's best-selling book Chocolat.

The Corporation denied her the rights to perform the piece but consoling herself with copious amounts of chocolate provided the inspiration to create a show expressing her passion for her favourite delicacy.

The "oversexed Mexican conchita" who joins her goes even further by transcending spirituality with confectionary.

"He understands chocolate," she explains. "He is totally passionate about it and reads people's fortunes from the chocolate they're eating."

Waring creates aphrodisiac fondue chocolate and a suspiciously phallic-looking Eiffel Tower along the journey of song, destiny, gags and chaos.

"The nature of the show leads to audience participation but in the end it's just chocolate and fun," she says.
