Review: Woman Seeking Cuddles
(PR Invite) Written by Ron McAslan, Woman Seeking Cuddles is a 50-minute play following the life of Harper after she unknowingly sleeps with her sperm-donor father, and life is never quite the same following that. Harper copes with the trauma and discomfort by having sex with numerous men - it’s messy, raw and at times really humorous.

Why I Can't Stop Watching 'The Comedy About Spies' (2026)
Review: The Comedy About Spies - Every time I see a Mischief show, I walk out that door with my shoulders feeling a little lighter, but it’s especially the case with this one. We all need a comfort show sometimes — and Spies is exactly that for me.

Review: Racists, Recessions & Revolutions
(PR Invite) Racists, Recessions & Revolutions is a new play by Isabella Heaver and Harry Conway, which debuted at Camden Fringe this week, ahead of its Edinburgh Fringe run over August.
The play is based on the fascinating true story from 2016, when a group of teenagers in a small Macedonian town took the opportunity to spread fake news across the world... the effects of which are still felt today.

Review: Firebird
(PR Invite) Every once in a while, you come across a play that completely hooks you, and you want nothing more than to see it again after leaving, still thinking about it days later.
This is exactly how I felt watching Firebird — an incredibly harrowing and powerful story about Tia, a girl who has been in care since she was three. She forms a connection with a man she thinks she can trust, but it ultimately unfolds into a deeply real story about grooming.
