Sycamore Grove is a thrilling, spooky journey into the world of dark magic and neighbours that will keep you guessing and entertained until the very end.

Review: Through the Mud, Fringe 2024

August 5, 2024 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

The powerful and compelling performance of “Through the Mud” transcends its hour-long duration, seamlessly blending music, dance, and storytelling to evoke a profound sense of injustice.

Review: Charles Dickens – The Hanged Man’s Bride, Fringe 2024

August 5, 2024 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

Despite the heat and challenges of adapting a short ghost story to the stage, James Nicholas’ passionate performance of Charles Dickens’ The Hanged Man’s Bride captivated the audience with his acting, making it a worthwhile experience for established fans of one-man shows and Dickens enthusiasts.

Review: My Mother’s Funeral – The Show, Fringe 2024

August 4, 2024 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

Kelly Jones’ “My Mother’s Funeral: The Show” is a powerful and emotionally intense modern play, brought to life by the brilliant performances of Nicole Sawyer, Debra Baker, and Samuel Armfield, but perhaps not the best choice for those currently grieving.

Review: Piskie, Fringe 2024

August 4, 2024 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Piskie is a powerful, pleasantly spooky theatrical experience, showcasing Lucy Roslyn’s impressive emotional range, though some repetitive elements could be refined for a sharper, more swift performance.

Review: Sherlock Holmes – The Last Act, Fringe 2024

August 3, 2024 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

“The Last Act” is a captivating play that Sherlock Holmes fans will enjoy for its faithful portrayal of the iconic detective. Still, it’s best suited for mature audiences familiar with the source material.

Review: A Giant on the Bridge, Fringe 2024

August 3, 2024 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

A Giant on the Bridge is a surprisingly delightful and easy-to-understand narrative that deftly weaves together complex emotions and numerous storylines. It’s a must-see performance at the 2024 Fringe Festival.

A review of ARI: The Spirit of Korea, Fringe 2024

August 3, 2024 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

ARI combines traditional and contemporary, fine art and grace, with high-octane beats and wonderfully binds all those ingredients with music and singing. If you’re a little tempted by the Korean season at the Festivals this year, you should be plenty tempted by ARI: Spirit of Korea.
