Brighton Fringe

2shoulderpads: Galaxy Train

A musical with a difference? extreme minimal costume

7-7-7

A Ritual You Didn't Agree To. Evil has never been this funny. Or this close.

Are you even Indian?

A British-born Indian woman and an Indian-born man love, spar and dance

---

Chemistry

A breakthrough work about love on the roll of a pill. Outstanding.

---

C’est Magnifique

It’s on its way to be-coming a classic.

---

Evangeline

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.

---

Fate Train

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.

---

History has no safe word

A haunting journey through Pompeii, power and the voices that refuse to stay buried.

---

Ironworks Pick Of The Fringe

An engaging, enjoyable evening

Jane Eyre

Polly Teale has released the daemons, but Nettie Sheridan’s ensemble has delivered Jane Eyre’s feeling to a pitch remarkable even for BLT.

Kinder

Do see this aching, poignant and very funny rite of passages when it lands.

Krapp’s Last Tape

An old man's life unspools

---

Lilla Multipass: Woman (33)

Who can really have the most tote bags to “take down the patriarchy”?

---

Murder, Margaret and Me

Brave, bold and really worth seeing above much else: even in a busy Festival.

---

Neddy Goes to Glasto

Corrina O’Beirne masters the demotic, the lyrical, the witty and metaphorical, all at once. A must-see.

---

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.

---

The Final Episode

Two original twists, a fine, fresh writer/performer/director and something I certainly look forward to seeing developed.

---

The Love We Think We Deserve

It could grow into something both exceptional and even more necessary.

---

The Winner Rolls it All

Nine bright young things play Monopoly with Abba songs

---

Therapist Zero

Parenting ,Mental Health abd resilience

When Gary Left Annie (Almost)

A beautifully written romantic comedy with a slightly neurotic, awkward energy that makes ordinary people feel strangely lovable.
