Review of Sh!t-faced Shakespeare®: A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Fringe 2025

August 12, 2025 by Bronwen Winter Phoenix Leave a Comment

Birdy made it along to McEwan Hall for a (shortened) performance of A Midsummer Night’s Dream in classic Sh!t-faced Shakespeare style!

Review: Queen – The Legend of Queen, Fringe 2025

August 11, 2025 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Night Owl’s Queen: The Legend of Queen is a stellar tribute. Led by the powerhouse vocals of Peter Marchant, the show masterfully navigates the band’s entire career, from rock anthems to disco hits. It’s a fantastic, high-energy production that’s a must-see for fans, destined to sell out night after night.

Review: 1984, Fringe 2025

August 11, 2025 by Guest Reviewer Leave a Comment

An interesting and memorable adaptation of the classic novel with plenty of atmosphere.

Review: The Telepath and The Conjuror, Fringe 2025

August 11, 2025 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The Oberons’ magic show, The Telepath and The Conjuror, is a high-quality blend of classic illusions and intriguing mentalism. The genuine chemistry of the husband-and-wife team and their polished performance make this a solid recommendation.

Review: Raise the Barre, Fringe 2025

August 11, 2025 by Andrew Girdwood 2 Comments

A dance spectacle that mashes up ballet and rock music. The dancers are phenomenal, and the energy is infectious. Though the show lacks a strong narrative, its diverse choreography and feel-good atmosphere make it a solid choice for a fun hour.

Review: Catching a Cheese Pervert – A Frances Francis Mystery, Fringe 2025

August 11, 2025 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Inspired by a true story, this Fringe play follows a woman who must prove her worth in her family’s dairy empire by tracking down a “cheese pervert.”

Review: I’m Not Saying We Should, But What If We Did?, Fringe 2025

August 11, 2025 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This show is a compelling satire on populist politics, female rage, and male privilege. The premise of banning men is confronting and thought-provoking, and the play’s unique visuals will stay with you long after it ends.

Review: No More Bull, Fringe 2025

August 11, 2025 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

A rousing and thought-provoking musical that re-examines the Minotaur myth through the eyes of Princess Ariadne.
