Review: Linus Karp was Hit with an Umbrella, Fringe 2026

August 10, 2026 by Bronwen Winter Phoenix Leave a Comment

Linus Karp was Hit with an Umbrella is a bold, brave and powerfully triumphant show of unity, support and love in the face of hate, with an important message. Absolutely unmissable.

Review: Patrick Monahan – I’m Not A Terrorist – I’m Freddie Mercury, Fringe 2026

Teesside’s Irish-Iranian comedic engine Patrick Monahan brings his latest Fringe outing to Gilded Balloon by the Museum for the 2026 Edinburgh Festival Fringe.

August 9, 2026 by Bronwen Winter Phoenix Leave a Comment
