August 14, 2025 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Wearing a tin foil hat, I was taken on a hilarious intergalactic adventure with “Encounter: A Space Cabaret.” This sci-fi musical comedy is a delightful and unique Fringe gem that perfectly blends fun with surprising depth. Highly recommended!

A meticulously crafted folk fantasy, Cloud’s “Warm as Summer, Bright as Blood” transitions from melancholy to defiant anger. This is a show for the weird and wonderful, with great choreography and a powerful narrative.

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.

This rock tribute show successfully honours the likes of Amy Winehouse, Kurt Cobain, and Janis Joplin with a talented band and a great range of vocalists.

Review: Women of Rock, Fringe 2025

August 9, 2025 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Reine Beau shines in this energetic celebration of rock’s matriarchs. The show’s excellent musical performances are matched by its poignant storytelling, which powerfully connects the struggles of past icons to contemporary themes. A must-see for fans of rock and powerful stories.

Review: Mitch Benn – The Lehrer Effect, Fringe 2025

August 7, 2025 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Mitch Benn is at the top of his game in this poignant and political tribute to Tom Lehrer. With sharp songwriting and a clear passion for his subject, Benn delivers an hour of validating satire that is both deeply personal and universally resonant. A must-see for fans of musical comedy.

Review: Jess Robinson – Your Song, Fringe 2025

August 6, 2025 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

A five-star review for a high-energy, hilarious show. Jess Robinson is a phenomenal singer and impressionist who fills the prestigious Assembly stage with ease. Even if you’re not an Elton John superfan, this tribute is a must-see for its incredible talent and comedic genius.
