Edinburgh 2022: Review: PLEASE, FEEL FREE TO SHARE, Pleasance Courtyard

It all started innocently enough, Alex (Róisín Bevan) who works as a social media consultant started constructing herself on her social media accounts. A filter here, a white lie there- she doesn't see the harm in it. Following the loss of her father, she is encouraged to join a grief support group where she discovers the buzz of having a live audience.

Alex begins to create a narrative for herself in order to receive affirmation from the others in her group. It doesn't stop at grief support and soon she finds herself attending multiple groups a day for all different issues.

Written by Rachel Causer and starring Róisín Bevan in this solo show, Bevan is a strong and engaging performer. Alex shouldn't be likeable, she's a compulsive liar who is manipulating others for attention but Bevan draws you in. She's funny and switches deftly between characters as she portrays different people in the groups.
