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.

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.

August 4, 2024 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Night Owl’s performance was short but sweet, favouring Fleetwood Mac’s greatest hits with a notable Stevie Nicks cover thrown in, making for an enjoyable “all killer – no filler” experience.

A review of Back to Black: The Music of Amy Winehouse, Fringe 2022

August 21, 2022 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Enough of the classics to satisfy your Amy Winehouse cravings and enough selected from off the beaten path for the gig not to feel too samey.

A review of The Carpenters Songbook, Fringe 2022

August 8, 2022 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I think it helps to have heard of The Carpenters to get the most from this gig, but you don’t have to be a super fan.
