Review: Goodbye Dandelion
Review: This show completely stole my heart, broke it, mended it and wrapped it up again. I would happily watch this again if I could and I haven’t stopped thinking about it since - literally getting teary-eyed thinking about how beautiful it was.

Review: The Meeples: XXX
(PR Invite) If you’re looking for a relaxing evening out, this show is not for you. BUT, if you’re after some chaos, song, dance and a hilariously wild night out, this is certainly that!

Review: This Is How I Got Arrested (after Smuggling Drugs across the border but never actually getting caught with any drugs)
(PR Invite) I really wasn’t sure what to expect with this one and it was an even better experience than I imagined. Despite the title of the show being the longest of any show I’ve ever seen at Fringe, the show itself absolutely flew by! Sixty minutes of absolute chaos…in the best possible way.

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.
