Brighton Fringe 2026
Blatt/Darwin/Holford Baroque Violins/Piano Recital St Nicholas Church
You forget the performers here for the most part, the best compliment I can pay them. A gem.
See it for the Chekhov, and come away forgetting for the most part these are students. They’re already Chekhovian.
First-rate Fringe music-theatre. Artistic content, particularly songs and verse, as well as direction and acting ensures this will clearly travel. Do see it.
A play not just about Myth. Its about how we carry grief,how stories help us to survive it,and how art can turn something painful into something shared.
A haunting journey through Pompeii, power and the voices that refuse to stay buried.
I’m sorry to disappoint you all
Two friends tangled together. Cocooned in their high rise flat and swallowed by the vastness of the city, an unravelling begins
Polly Teale has released the daemons, but Nettie Sheridan’s ensemble has delivered Jane Eyre’s feeling to a pitch remarkable even for BLT.
Brave, bold and really worth seeing above much else: even in a busy Festival.
Corrina O’Beirne masters the demotic, the lyrical, the witty and metaphorical, all at once. A must-see.
An original musical rooted in Norwegian folklore filled with enchanting song, humour, puppetry and physical theatre.
That’s just the way it’s (un)done
A shattering piece, often grotesque and intentionally so, it is also sensual, thoroughly entertaining and infused with a sense of fun
The Dance of Time: A New Black Comedy
Here’s hoping it returns, clearly a play with a future as long as Tom’s is apparently short.
Two original twists, a fine, fresh writer/performer/director and something I certainly look forward to seeing developed.
A beautifully written romantic comedy with a slightly neurotic, awkward energy that makes ordinary people feel strangely lovable.
