Edinburgh Festival
It may only be one month of the year, but we always have some of our team eager to head North and see what’s happening. So we thought we should collect all of our Edinburgh content into one convenient place for you.

Review: The Gas Station at the End of the Universe, Venue 13
A charming, heartfelt, and surprisingly emotional show where a beautiful piece of writing is brought to vivid life by a wonderful Canadian team.
-
Review: Kafka for Beginners, Dunedin Theatre at Braw Venues @ Hill Street
A rather generic dystopian scenario uplifted by a script embellished with curated references from art and literature.
-
Review: Betsy and Patty Find Out, Bedlam Theatre
Two cows unexpectedly express everything many of us are feeling right now about the state of the world. Funny, poignant and truly unique.
-
Review: Motorway, ZOO Playground
The Singing Detective meets Close Encounters of the Third Kind in this utterly bizarre play. There is meaning here, it's just we may never all agree on what it is.
-
Review: Dracula: Lucy’s Dream, Lennox Theatre at Pleasance
An intoxicating dance of puppetry, illusion and nightmarish bloodlust that will leave you utterly thrilled.
-
Review: Tales from the Shoulders of Giants, Greek Gyros Grill, Free Fringe
Poems about science? Why not, when they are told with such pure delight?
-
Review: Jellyfish, Underbelly George Square
The quest to live forever proves amusing for our rather unlikeable 100-year-old twins. It's a show filled with great ideas, but the ending needs to be reconsidered for the piece to be truly great.

Review: Paywall, C Aurora
Neysa Killeen has created a great character in her wannabe journalist Lizzy, now she needs to build a stronger platform to allow Lizzy to fly... or fall.
-
Review: Dead Wrong, theSpace Triplex
As two friends hide away from a possible murder they may have committed, they are left to consider their friendship and whether it is one based on equal terms.

Review: Very Hot. Very Messy. Underbelly Cowgate
Georgia Polly-Taylor is a talent we should all embrace. She clowns, she farts, she does puppetry, and she leaves the audience in tears of laughter.
