Edinburgh 2022: Review: PLEASE, FEEL FREE TO SHARE, Pleasance Courtyard
BWW review of Please, Feel Free To Share at Edfringe
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.
The twisty storytelling in Please, Feel Free To Share makes this play entirely unpredictable and completely gripping.
