Up close and personal inside The Nook at Teviot, Jess Carrivick turns childhood home movies into rapid character comedy. An inventive, nostalgic hour at the Edinburgh Fringe.
Review: High Heels from the Big Boot, Fringe 2026
A playful comedy about women reclaiming the messy, inconvenient parts of themselves that history and family memory tend to erase.
Review: Bleep Bleep! – Fringe 2026
A playful, imaginative slice of children’s theatre built entirely on movement, visual storytelling and handcrafted sound. Instead of dialogue, the performers rely on sharp physical comedy and expressive character work to guide the audience through a simple but engaging storyline. The robot’s lifelike behaviour becomes the centrepiece of the show, creating a sense of wonder that pulls children in immediately.
Review: Mario the Maker Magician, Fringe 2026
A brilliantly energetic, funny, engaging and interactive magic show – not to mention fun for the entire family. Highly recommend!
A review of Alfie Brown: The Entertainer, Fringe 2026
A smart, funny and well-crafted hour from Alfie Brown, with plenty of laughs, excellent storytelling and an ending you really shouldn’t spoil for yourself.
Review: Woody Sez, Fringe 2026
From Dust Bowl ballads to Merchant Marine anthems, Woody Sez at Underbelly Cowbarn is an exceptional celebration of Woody Guthrie packed with stunning four-part harmonies and live folk music.
Review: The Trials of Magnus Coffinkey, Fringe 2026
The Trials of Magnus Coffinkey is a deeply devastating show about using storytelling as a mechanism to process grief and loss. Bring tissues, I was a mess. Unforgettable performances, and a powerful show.
Review: Big Naked Variety Show, Fringe 2026
A highly entertaining variety show where all the acts appear naked and do their thing, with comedy, circus, magic and “the best thing ever”. You’ll laugh, you’ll cheer, you’ll be shocked, and most importantly, you’ll probably leave feeling like you’ve seen enough naked people for the day. Probably.
