Upcoming Shows

A Queer Little Murder

Aug 5 – Aug 31, 2026

A Queer Little Murder is a riotous interactive comedy that combines the thrills of a classic whodunnit with a distinctly queer twist. Written and performed by Savannah Hankinson, the show drops audiences into a tiny, suspiciously fabulous town where a murder has taken place and...

In a Bad Way

In a Bad Way

Aug 5 – Aug 31, 2026

Gr is sick. With what, she's not sure. Blood clots, maybe? Foreign Accent Syndrome, possibly? Bum cancer most definitely; the ginger one from Desperate Housewives has it, like. In a GP in Dublin, she's with the Doctor (for the fifth time this month) and she won't rest until she...

In A Bad Way

Aug 5 – Aug 31, 2026

In A Bad Way is a fast-paced, darkly comedic one-woman show written and performed by Irish playwright Isolde Fenton, exploring health anxiety and the lengths people go to in search of certainty. The play follows Grá, a young Limerick woman, who returns to a GP surgery on Dame...

Puck Bunnies is a drag musical parody of the TV show Heated Rivalry, written by Kyra Brown and filmmaker Christan Leonard, starring Brown and Hanna Barlow as Drag Kings Ilya Rozanov and Shane Hollander respectively. The 8-person ensemble cast features women, queer, trans, and...

Stayin’ Alive

Stayin’ Alive

Aug 5 – Aug 31, 2026

Maggie's nan is dead, her therapist is useless, and her sister is threatening to knock her out. Maggie? She's still in her nan's house. The walls are closing in, but somewhere between the Blue Anchor pub, a couple of dodgy tribute acts and a broken Alexa, she might figure out...

Tap Out! (Or I'll Hit You Again)

Tap Out! (Or I'll Hit You Again)

Aug 5 – Aug 31, 2026

Realising that his life is going nowhere, a man decides to go out in a mask and pick fights with random people on the street. He knows it's reckless and amoral, but he doesn't care – it's liberating. He feels like a "man". And as he gets a taste for it, the consequences of these...

EDINBURGH 2026: Review: ROCKPOOLS, Bunker Three At Pleasance Courtyard

EDINBURGH 2026: Review: ROCKPOOLS, Bunker Three At Pleasance Courtyard

by Clementine Scott · August 15, 2026

Unless one happens to have read the programme notes beforehand, it’s not immediately obvious that Rockpools is a play about endometriosis. For the first half, the only hint we get is the protagonist’s bloody sheets. Instead, debut writer-performer Molly Windust has created a character rich in od…

EDINBURGH 2026: Review: BERNIE DIETER'S CLUB KABARETT, Underbelly

EDINBURGH 2026: Review: BERNIE DIETER'S CLUB KABARETT, Underbelly

by Natalie O'Donoghue · August 15, 2026

Join kabarett provocateur Bernie Dieter as her gin-soaked haus band soundtracks a debauched night of breathtaking circus, gender-bending aerial and fire-breathing sideshow at its most rebellious and hilarious best. Club Kabarett is more than just a show; 'it's an exuberant, juicy, guns-blazing perfo…

EDINBURGH 2026: Review: CHIP AND GUS: A COMEDY WITH BALLS, Venue 45 at TheSpace

EDINBURGH 2026: Review: CHIP AND GUS: A COMEDY WITH BALLS, Venue 45 at TheSpace

by Clementine Scott · August 14, 2026

Earlier this year, Marty Supreme made a case for ping pong as a metaphor for life’s constant ebbs and flows, and an outlet for a particular type of obsessive striver. In New York-based Fat Knight Theatre’s two-hander Chip and Gus: A Comedy with Balls, we hardly need the sport to be there at all,…

EDINBURGH 2026: Review: LEGENDARY, Friesian At Underbelly, Bristo Square

EDINBURGH 2026: Review: LEGENDARY, Friesian At Underbelly, Bristo Square

by Clementine Scott · August 14, 2026

“I’ve been thinking about my childhood” is how the Singaporean performer Cheeyang Ng begins Legendary, a show preoccupied with the idea of childhood, and particularly with queer Asian childhood. This overarching theme involves both the messages we learn as a child, and what we pass on to our f…
