A script full of blanks? One could say it is slightly better in theory than in reality but I can assure you there is much to be gained from this exploration of mortality and the human condition.
All in Fringe
FRINGE REVIEW: Ben Darsow Off The Cuff
As its title suggests, the majority of the show is completely improvised, relying solely on punter interaction to drive the show forward. It’s this kind of acrobat-on-a-tightrope type comedy show that makes proceedings all the more thrilling to watch.

FRINGE REVIEW: Out of the Cave
My experience at Out of the Cave, Skylight Theatre Company’s devised social commentary, I can safely say, was the exact opposite of what many others who have graced those steps have experienced, and if life imprisonment meant watching this play a thousand times over I would be so there!

The sharp, fiery dynamic amongst Fairybread's cast remained incontestable, with each beautifully portraying the demand for emotion and human connection.

Fringe 2016 Preview: Talk Dirty to Me
Sam and Ash have never met, but they’ve been having sex every night. Kinky sex. The sort of sex that you pretend you’ve never heard of. But one of them is a liar. Welcome to the world of talk dirty to me, a play where sex is lies, honesty is sex, and lying is loneliness.

Fringe World - Digging Deep - The Pleasure Garden, Until Sunday
Staring up-and-coming stage actor Abigail Martin as Lucy, the play is not at all for the faint hearted but highlights an incredibly important and too often taboo issue. The characters face self-doubt, guilt, anger, blame, isolation, powerlessness and the enormous courage needed to confront the past in an incredibly honest and sensitive way.
Noodle Palace: Bruce Fummey's Afro-Scottish Stress
What produced the cognitive dissonance was that, inside the KEN DOM(n)E and only a few metres away from a joke that said “Old man noodle say man with wholein pocket feel cocky all day long”, Bruce Fummey's show is all about the trauma and ills of racial stereotyping.
