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!

Review: Gin and Rum Festival, Assembly Rooms

October 11, 2025 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

While the lengthy queues and £7-a-drink tokens might give you pause, the Gin and Rum Festival delivers on its core promise: an incredible variety of spirits you won’t find on the high street.

Unbelievable Magic for Non-Believers is a hit. The show, set in a packed Assembly Rooms, features a former physicist who uses science to enhance his illusions. It’s a fantastic, family-friendly show that keeps everyone, even the youngest audience members, completely entertained.

Review: 1457, The Boy at Rest, Fringe 2025

August 5, 2025 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This review praises “1457, The Boy at Rest” as a powerful and polished slice of Korean history. It highlights the show’s Shakespearean qualities, the moral complexity of its villain, and the superb performances from the entire cast.

Review of A Midsummer’s Nights Dream, Festival 2012

August 5, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

A young cast giving it their all in one of the most popular and Shakespeare classics. Notice not only the speed of the costume swaps, fast enough to pay homage to the magical art of the quick change, but the slight of hand involved in the administration of fairy potions.
