Review: House of Mystery, Fringe 2025

August 5, 2025 by Liwei Teng Leave a Comment

An evocative, ever-evolving solo performance blending physical theatre and improvisation, created by China’s “Underground Theatre Queen” Xue Jia. Join a powerful journey where movement, silence, and memory meet, transforming audiences from observers into co-creators.

Review: Saaniya Abbas – Hellarious, Fringe 2025

August 5, 2025 by Andrew Girdwood 4 Comments

Charming, adorable, and armed with a Trump joke within the first five seconds, Saaniya Abbas makes a stellar Fringe debut with Hellarious. Her comedy cleverly navigates her cultural identity and a genuine curiosity about her audience, making for a warm, engaging, and thoroughly funny hour.

Review: Well Behaved Women, Fringe 2025

August 5, 2025 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Well Behaved Women is a triumph. It expertly balances laugh-out-loud farce with a powerful, timely message about the joy and strength of female friendship.

Review: Dance Dance Involution, Fringe 2025

August 4, 2025 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

A surprising and spirited show that is less about dance and more about the vital cultural debate around work, life, and rebellion in modern Hong Kong. The three young performers are excellent in this comedic and emotional exploration of the ‘lying flat’ phenomenon. Highly recommended.
