Brighton Fringe 2022

A Very Great Mischief

Winner of the Rialto New Writing Scratch 2020. Look out for this play when it returns.


Accidental Birth of an Anarchist

A thoroughly absorbing play whose polemical agency is none the less tempered by the people it’s refracted through.


Airswimming

Superb revival of Charlotte Jones’s play about two women incarcerated for fifty years for bring different. With a standing ovation of such force that convention had to be broken with the actors forced back on stage.


Anne Boleyn

If it’s drama you’re after in Brighton Fringe, this is one of the two or three essential stops. Thrilling, authoritative, with Greene the jewel in a sparkling ensemble.


Cock

A superb revival of Bartlett’s warmest, most ground-breaking, perhaps most enduring play so far.


Cocky and the Tardigrades

Bonkers brilliance. Cocky couldn’t have been premiered with two more stunning actors, and the author’s flawless stepping-in remains remarkable.


Consent

Raine balances articulate ferocity with its opposite: a broken plea. Scott Roberts’ revival improves on the NT premiere. In his hands Consent’s a small classic.


God of Carnage

Acting here is tighter than any version I’ve seen. This revival of a modern classic has to be the best of the Fringe so far.


Love and Money

Compelling Study of human fallibility


Two Pairs of Eyes

An immersive ghost story
