FringeReview UK 2024

Boy In Da Korma

A necessary, engaging, original variation on finding your voice: and a theatrical coup. Acting, writing, directing, video, lighting and tech support, indeed singing are first class. A gem.


Dream of a Ridiculous Man

A definitive telling of that rarest thing, an uplifting Dostoevsky tale. It’s unlikely to be rendered better than this.


Greenhouse Festival LAMDA Festival New Directors in association with Orange Tree

Every one of these productions could enjoy a run at the Orange Tree: they’re exciting and accomplished.


Heart’s Desire/L’Amore Del Cuore

Anyone admiring Churchill, ferocious comedy or excited by a rare UK foray into Italian theatre must see this.


Hide and Seek

An absorbing two-hander with as unexpected an ending as Lauren Gunderson’s I and You


Lie Low

An outstanding production.


Mnemonic

Mnemonic is treasurable, eloquent, a rare passport. It remembers what hope, connectedness and peace smelt like. It’s worth remembering that.


The Years

This production reminds us it’s often the least theatrical, least tractable works that break boundaries, glow with an authority that changes the order of things.


Utoya

Compelling, and an important UK premiere.


Vanya

This is the greatest one-man performance I’ve seen, said a Chekhov-immersed director of 45 years’ experience next to me. Yes.
