Review: Windrush Secret, EdFringe
Powerful, provocative, and deeply moving, this is outstanding theatre.

Review: Richard II, The Libra Theatre Café
An abridged version of Shakespeare’s history that keeps the story and feelings intact.

Review: 113, Edfringe
A bold concept in need of development: 113 is set in dystopian confinement, with two occupants trying to work out who they are and why they are there. Despite its potential, the end is swift and pedestrian.

Review: Up, EdFringe
A slick, funny and inventive performance that uses small objects to tell a big tale: it’s all about how you look at it.

An enthusiastic cast give a snapshot of teen life from the 1960s in this mini jukebox musical

Review: The Unlikely Friendship of Feather Boy and Tentacle Girl, Edfringe.
A show that has spectacular, breathtaking performances that really can't be faulted, yet is strangely still lacking dramatic tension.

Novel, neurodivergent, nonsense humour with more than a hint of slime.

Review: The Unstoppable Rise of Ben Manager, EdFringe
One man’s bizarrely bonkers, hugely entertaining rise through the corporate world
