A review of Alex Kitson: Now Look Here, Fringe 2026

August 27, 2026 by Guest Reviewer Leave a Comment

A smart, energetic and genuinely funny hour from Alex Kitson, with sharp observations, strong storytelling and a distinctive perspective that makes familiar situations feel fresh.

A review of MC Hammersmith: Ice Ice Nepo Baby, Fringe 2026

August 25, 2026 by Guest Reviewer Leave a Comment

An absurdly impressive mix of freestyle rap, nerdy crowd work and comedy, powered by linguistic skills that barely seem biologically plausible.

Review: Crowd Work from Hell, Fringe 2026

August 24, 2026 by Guest Reviewer Leave a Comment

Rough around the edges improv comedy with some jankiness I found wholesome and connecting, Yu brings together the crowd for a session of playful bullying, (not too traumatic) embarrassing stories, and glues them together into one collaborative crowd work tale.

YMMV, but I walked away feeling like I had a brief and hilarious adventure into a living murder mystery fairy tale with new friends (and co-conspirators).

Review: The Provacateurs: This Library Needs a DJ / Horror Therapy, Fringe 2026

August 24, 2026 by Guest Reviewer Leave a Comment

A snacky pairing of controversial or niche lectures in a casual and light-hearted setting.
With ample time for Q&A, the Provocateurs open the door in the Fringe for both nerds and the curious to watch a show and walk away with something to really think about (with further reading optional!)

Review: Tomatoes Tried to Kill Me but Banjos Saved My Life, Fringe 2026

August 24, 2026 by Guest Reviewer 1 Comment

1 hour and 10 minutes went by quickly as I was utterly hooked throughout. A refreshingly earnest and surprisingly relatable show that left me feeling inspired to take my creative interests seriously.

A review of Chris Grace: 88%, Fringe 2026

August 24, 2026 by Guest Reviewer Leave a Comment

In his Fringe 2026 hour, Chris Grace: 88%, Chris Grace brings 100% entertainment with hilarious stories, astute takes, and a bevy of underlying questions that demand thought from all who attend.

Review: Do You Wanna Go? – Fringe 2026

August 24, 2026 by Guest Reviewer Leave a Comment

In Do You Wanna Go? David Nehls brings to life a whirlwind romance that slips out of reach nearly as quickly as it arrived, leaving the full scope of human emotion and deep reverence for life and all it has in store for us as a memento of the journey.

Review: Trans People Are Awful, Fringe 2026

August 24, 2026 by Guest Reviewer Leave a Comment

A deeply intimate and introspective dive into what it means to be oneself at any cost, through a delightful body horror lens that also comes with belly laughs, impressive physical performance, and a not unconvincing argument that murder may just be moral and even more shockingly, vegan.
