A review of Matthew Gallagher: Last Minute, Fringe 2026

August 21, 2026 by Bronwen Winter Phoenix Leave a Comment

A really fun hour of impressions, observational comedy and crowdwork. A strong debut from Gallagher, if not the most polished – with a bit more confidence, he’ll definitely be one to watch in the coming years!

Review: NewsRevue, Fringe 2026

August 21, 2026 by Bronwen Winter Phoenix Leave a Comment

A hilarious musical parody comedy sketch show on all things political and current affairsy. If the real news is bringing you down, this feels like the antidote.

Review: Final Queen, Fringe 2026

August 21, 2026 by Bronwen Winter Phoenix Leave a Comment

A really joyful and gloriously sequinned performance from an absolute tour-de-force who commands the stage and entertains with seamless musical numbers, dancing, acrobatics, crowdwork and more!

Review: Tale of the Firebird – Concerto for Violin, Fire & Acrobatic Orchestra, Fringe 2026

August 21, 2026 by Lauren Charlotte Leave a Comment

If the combination of live strings music, acrobatics and aerial arts sounds appealing, this show combines them wonderfully! Would certainly recommend this show to anyone who is curious to see these art forms merged in one show. It is very impressive!

A review of John Robertson: Excitable Boy! Fringe 2026

August 21, 2026 by Lauren Charlotte Leave a Comment

I’ve heard good things about John Robertson. People queued early to make sure they got into this free show. That made me even more keen to find out what this show would be like. He didn’t disappoint, this was a chaotically entertaining hour!

Review: Both Sides… Phil Collins and Genesis Celebrated, Fringe 2026

August 20, 2026 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Proof that Phil Collins still wins over every generation. Night Owl Shows delivers a tight, energetic retrospective inside one of the most comfortable musical rooms at the Fringe.

Review: Material Girl – Madonna The Icon, Fringe 2026

August 20, 2026 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

From early pop anthems to show-stopping musical ballads, Night Owl Shows brings Madonna’s catalogue to life with remarkable vocal precision at Surgeons’ Hall.

Review: Burger and a Pint – Treats for the Soul, Fringe 2026

August 20, 2026 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Ted Milligan and James Trickey bring infectious chemistry, fast sketches, and gentle audience fun to the Pleasance Cellar. A genuinely warm and funny hour of Fringe sketch comedy that hits the mark.
