Edinburgh 2024 Review: THE MOSINEE PROJECT, Underbelly Cowgate
by Katie Kirkpatrick - August 15, 2024
As slick and suave as its performers’ suits, The Mosinee Project is a curious little piece of documentary theatre. It takes as its subject an experiment carried out in the American midwest in 1950: to demonstrate the threat of communism, agents staged a faux communist takeover of the small town of Mosinee. It’s a fascinating set-up, but unfortunately the show doesn’t quite live up to its intrigue.

Review: EDINBURGH 2024: GHOST LIGHT: BETWEEN FALL AND FLIGHT, Underbelly's Circus Hub On The Meadows.
by Christiana Rose - August 15, 2024
As the house lights diminish one by one, an atmosphere is set, where absolute silence feels weighty and profound. The tension builds as mysterious and unsettling whispers curiously fill the rounded circus stage, a lone *teeterboard illuminated, a character of its very own.

by Katie Kirkpatrick - August 14, 2024

Her distinct writing style features plenty of quips, puns, and self-aware nods, making it feel real as opposed to hidden behind theatrical artifice.
