BEEP BOOP Comes To Edinburgh Festival Fringe
by BWW News Desk - July 02, 2019
What happens when a man is left alone to his own devices? Beep Boop is a darkly comic clown show which gives witness to the full expression and logical outcome of our technology obsession and addiction. It's about the absurd and aching irony of the detachment brought about by the tools that are meant to help us connect. It is also one of the funniest shows about loneliness you are likely to see this Edinburgh Fringe...

Louisa Fitzhardinge Brings Her Sell-Out Sensation COMMA SUTRA To The Edinburgh Fringe
by BWW News Desk - July 02, 2019
Louisa Fitzhardinge has found her one true love: the English language. But it's not easy being a grammar nerd when people keep selling 'fresh strawberry's' and misusing the word 'literally'. All she really wants is someone to snuggle up and whisper sweet, grammatically correct nothings into her ear. Ideally in multiple languages. Is that too much to ask?

Neuroscientist Dr. Heather Berlin And Rapper Baba Brinkman Bring A New Show To The Edinburgh Fringe
by BWW News Desk - July 01, 2019
Can we learn to control our impulses before they control us? Conversely, and perhaps even more importantly: can we learn to let them flow when it really matters? Parts of your brain give you impulses and desires, whilst other parts of the same mysterious organ slam on the brakes, based on your long-term goals and society's expectations. Living a productive life in modern society necessitates the regulation of a lot of impulses. But then creativity and spontaneity sometimes require us to let them off the leash. So, which is better?
