  • Review: “100% C*ntinental” @ Edinburgh Festival Fringe (The Basement at Home Bar) – 20th August 2023

    An evening of honest, hilarious and very feminist comedy from the experiences of immigrants across the world? What’s a better way to conclude a weekend at the Fringe? After a very confusing walk through a bar and down some very dingy stairs, we’re greeted by the lovely door staff of Mari Volar’s “100% C*ntinental”. I […]

    The Asian Comedy Showcase was, in essence, a celebration of all the fantastic Asian talent at the Fringe – and what a gloriously fun celebration it was!

  • Review: Hi, I’m Zoë @ Edinburgh Festival Fringe (The Lounge at Eastside) – 20th August 2023

    Eastside was a small pub-type situation housing several of the free Fringe shows and “Hi I’m Zoë” was based in a long room called “the Lounge” seeming almost like private seating in a pub or a club. It made for the perfect location for this show and Zoë Frendin made the most of all the […]

  • Review: Theatre Group’s But Why Bump Off Barnaby? @ The Annex 02/02/23

    TG’s production of But Why Bump Off Barnaby? is a hilariously whimsical Knives Out style murder-mystery: aristocrat Orien LeDuc invites his family members to his spooky manor, and before long, long-absent Barnaby Folcey is murdered. An unlikely group of eccentric characters desperately try and unveil the mystery behind Barnaby’s death, the plot thickening at every […]

  • A Review of the Theatre Group Society’s Freshers Show: When We Are Married
