EDINBURGH 2026 Review: A BETTER MEMORY, Pleasance Courtyard
The script itself introduces too many narrative devices to be subtle. In the first 15 minutes, a variety of Chekhov’s Guns is presented to us, and the whole plot unravels before it even kicks in. The show is nonetheless very interesting in its thematic line. With AI featuring in our lives more pro…
EDINBURGH 2026 Review: FATHER, AWAY SHE GOES, ZOO Playground
Meet Sarah Jones: mediocre artist, terrible friend, compulsive liar, awful narcissist. While her classmates are virtue signalling in order to get into art school, she’s busy being rejected for being herself. Or, is she? Electra Kolb writes an excellent antihero. Her debut play is a piercing examin…

EDINBURGH 2026 Review: A MICROSCOPIC ODYSSEY, Pleasance Courtyard

EDINBURGH 2026 Review: BIGFOOT RIPPED MY DOG IN HALF I SAW IT, Summerhall
These are the coolest kids on the programme, with a sold-out run at Summerhall and a London transfer on their hands. Bigfoot... duo Xhloe and Natasha deserve every second of the hype they’re getting. Their idiosyncratic brand of absurdist physical theatre is what the Fringe should be. Experimental…
EDINBURGH 2026 Review: I THINK I HATE ACTORS, Just The Tonic At The Caves
Roo Sutcliffe is funny. Properly funny. Her gags are clever, and her physicality is equally remarkable. Thank goodness her mothers sat through her dramatic readings of The Hungry Caterpillar while she was dressed as Elton John when she was a child and subsequently sold their cat to afford her traini…
