John-Luke Roberts: All I Wanna Do Is [FX: GUNSHOTS] With a [FX: GUN RELOADING] and a [FX: CASH REGISTER] and Perform Some Comedy! 5*****
August 5, 2018 | one4reviewJohn-Luke describes this show as a ‘manifesto for absurdity’, a celebration of the fact that most of life doesn’t confirm to neatly plotted narrative arcs, and an acknowledgement that this is okay, is even a source of amusement. It might … Read More
Late’n’Live 3***
August 5, 2018 | one4reviewLate’n’Live comes with a reputation of being rather riotous; the show I saw seemed quite calm (caveat of ‘calm for a drunk audience at 1am’), though the press office and the compere did mention an incident of on-stage vomiting the … Read More

August 5, 2018 | one4reviewIn the middle of George Street is a bright blue giant container box, which I thought was being used for extra chairs and equipment however turns out to be a venue called The Blue Room. I was getting concerned how … Read More
Rhys Nicholson :- Seminal 5****
August 4, 2018 | one4reviewThe Underbelly Jersey performing space is buried deep in Briso Square and of course there is total darkness as the show commences but it all changes once Rhys Nicholson hits the stage clad in a distinctive suit and infused with … Read More
Sindu Vee:- Sandhog 4****
August 4, 2018 | one4reviewI found it odd that this is Ms Vee’s debut hour at the Fringe as she seemed to be all over the TV and Radio for a while and it certainly isn’t her fist Edinburgh excursion, so I was expecting … Read More
