Review: A Bad Taste Show, Fringe 2025

August 18, 2025 by Bronwen Winter Phoenix Leave a Comment

A tightly-run 45-minute comedy sketch show based on ‘bad taste’ jokes and scenarios.

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

August 17, 2025 by Bronwen Winter Phoenix Leave a Comment

A provocative, cleverly-written satirical play exploring populism and privilege under the guise of a proposed policy to ban men (and football).

Review: Celtic Roots, Fringe 2025

August 16, 2025 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

A polished and professional musical show, Celtic Roots sees singer Kevin Littlejohn and fiddler Kirsty McGroarty connect with the audience through a sincere and emotional setlist of modern Celtic songs.

Review: Baker Street Ladies, Fringe 2025

August 15, 2025 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Baker Street Ladies shines a light on the overlooked women of Sherlock Holmes’s world. This captivating one-woman show, with a transformative central performance, is a unique and worthwhile theatrical experience.

Review: Fun at Parties, Fringe 2025

August 12, 2025 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Berlin Open Theatre’s Fun at Parties is a fast-moving, energetic dive into Berlin’s club scene. A fantastic all-female cast explores friendship and burnout in a drug-hazed world where the ‘fun’ is a coping mechanism.

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: 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.
