Jenna Coleman at the Liz Kingsman's One Woman Show opening night today. SO gorgeous!

As an aside, notice how she has the exact same coat and bag she had in the first picture we saw of her being blonde?

October–November 2017 and March–April 2019. TIMEWASTERS, created by costar Daniel Lawrence Taylor, is an extremely silly sci-fi comedy about a modern-day South London jazz quartet — bitter music nerd Nick (Taylor, second from left), vacuous ladies' man Jason (Kadiff Kirwan, second from right), pathologically cheerful Horace (Samson Kayo, right), and Nick's mercenary younger sister Lauren (Adelayo Adedayo, left) — who encounter a mysterious homeless man with a time machine in a filthy elevator car. This sends the quartet first to 1926 and then (in the second season) to 1958, where they stumble through assorted misadventures, grapple with the many flavors of English racism, and make their living playing jazz covers of pop songs that haven't been written yet (while calling themselves the Wu-Tang Clan!).

Often quite funny, if not always in the best of taste, TIMEWASTERS has a fun premise and a winning cast, but it's awfully scattershot, and the lack of direction means each season starts to drag in the middle even with only six episodes per series. Nick remains kind of a wet blanket throughout, even for a straight man, and although Kirwan, Kayo, and Adedayo are all wonderful comedic actors, it takes a frustratingly long time for Horace and Lauren to come into focus as characters; Jason, who's more clearly defined from the outset, eventually becomes a tad one-note, preoccupied with his multi-generational relationship with a posh white woman named Victoria (played by Liz Kingsman in the first season and Anna Chancellor in the second), who unapologetically fetishizes him. Overall, the show is entertaining fluff, but it would have benefited from tighter plotting and a greater sense of direction.

Before posting this, I had a brief glance in the "#timewasters" tag out of morbid curiosity and was dismayed, though not really surprised, to see that almost everything in that tag was about Victoria's idiot twin brother Ralph, who appears only in the first two episodes and then runs off to join the French Foreign Legion. People of color regularly remark that online fandom would fuck a fence post as long as it was white, but fixating on such an extremely minor white character in a show with four Black leads seems particularly egregious — and ironic, given how much of the comedy of TIMEWASTERS is about the idiocy of white supremacy and racism.

When it came time to create a trailer for her one-woman show — which is titled, of all things, “One Woman Show” and is playing at the Greenwich House Theater — Liz Kingsman researched what other productions had done. One video especially made her laugh.

“It was for one of the Shakespeare histories and it was just close-ups of a man fondling his cuffs and touching his tie,” Kingsman said on a recent afternoon. “You’re like, ‘Is that Kit Harington?’ And then a bit of hair. It’s teasing Kit Harington, and in the end it is Kit Harington.”

She decided to deploy the same gimmick for her own promotional trailer, complete with none other that Harington himself (though that “Game of Thrones” star, to be clear, is not in Kingsman’s show). “I’m not famous, so a trailer where it teases me…,” Kingsman said. “No one’s ever heard of me, so who cares?”
