Review: Blip Blarp – An Alien Love Story, Fringe 2026

August 9, 2026 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Sci-fi meets physical cabaret in Blip Blarp: An Alien Love Story at The Mash House. A deadpan, blue-painted look at mixed signals, AI visual satire, and human romantic chaos.

Review: Bald 2 in 1, Fringe 2025

August 25, 2025 by Guest Reviewer Leave a Comment

A delightful journey into absurdity with Bald 2-in-1, a split-bill stand-up showcase from two very different bald men (although, as they point out, all bald men look the same) that bring their own brand of nonsense to the stage.

Review: The Electric Head, Fringe 2025

August 15, 2025 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

A high-stakes improv show that proves to be a captivating and bizarre adventure, elevated by the performers’ incredible chemistry and experience.

Review: Candace Bryan – MILF (Mom I’d Like to Find), Fringe 2025

August 10, 2025 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

A clever, cathartic, and consistently hilarious hour of stand-up that turns a powerful personal story about a missing mother into a triumph of comedy.

Review: Smile, It Might Never Happen, Fringe 2025

August 9, 2025 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Smile, It Might Never Happen is a high-wire act of an improv show. When it works, it’s brilliant, with the cast’s chemistry and musical prowess creating a unique and entertaining experience. When it doesn’t, it’s a little awkward, but never for long.

Review: The Mothman Cometh, Fringe 2025

August 2, 2025 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

“The Mothman Cometh” is a surprisingly uplifting and interactive theatre experience where the audience participates in a bizarre group therapy session to help a troubled, song-loving Mothman escape the abyss.

Review: Hot Concrete – Too Hot (and Too Concretey) for TV, Fringe 2024

August 8, 2024 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Hot Concrete is a hilarious and unforgettable comedy show that pushes innovative and TV-worthy humour, leaving you wanting more from the talented duo of Henry Whaley and Charlie Billingham.
