Up close and personal high-brow theatre from award-winning Korean/Irish playwright Rena Brannan. A tidy team of actors brings two stories of friendships and the dangers of London to life.
Review of Lost Cabaret: Nonsense in the Night, Fringe 2023
As a general rule, I’m usually up for anything cabaret, and anything a bit weird, whimsical and silly, so this show appealed to me whilst browsing the media portal. I didn’t realise until after I’d booked that it was based in the famous Magical Spiegelyurt, so that was also a bit of a treat.

Rachel Parris is fantastic and worth seeing, even if the Work in Progress is an honest-to-goodness description of the state of the show and not a clever name.
A Review of 007 Voices of Bond, Fringe 2023

Review: John Robertson’s ‘The Dark Room’ is Chaotic, Brutal, Unmissable Entertainment – Fringe 2023
John Robertson’s The Dark Room is an unmissable Fringe institution at this point. Without this show, is it even Fringe? If you’ve never experienced The Dark Room before, so yourself a favour – if you can somehow get hold of a ticket, that is!

A review of The Theory of Relativity, Fringe 2023
The Theory of Relativity is a musical that explores the universal experiences of young adults as they navigate school, relationships, and self-discovery. It’s an early start at the Fringe, but a safe one, and I enjoyed the show.
A review of The Sorries, Fringe 2023
The Sorries are a chance to hear songs sung by Scottish farmers and fighters hundreds of years ago. The performance and venue are both class, feeling safe and practised, and this gig feels ideal for people interested in history.
