We’re over the moon! 2 weeks ago I did my final performance of SLAY @edfringe @gildedballoon and was heading back from a life-changing month in Edinburgh and I’m still reading gorgeous audience feedback.

Thank you to everyone who took the time to review! There were thousands of shows this year and you chose to spend your afternoon with us 🫶🏼💜💊

“Toole shines in the role of Kit”

SLAY has its FIFTH review and its four stars 💫

Thank you @thequeerreview for taking the time to come to SLAY and write this lovely review. Particularly your words on my writing, as I have wanted to establish myself as a serious writer-performer the past three years.

I’ve been blown away by the positive response from SLAY and we have more to come! Thank you for everyone who supported by coming in person or from afar I see you and appreciate you x taken in Gilded Balloon Teviot by @loisambert

🧖🏻‍♀️ FRINGE RESET 🧖🏻‍♀️

So grateful to have a lil overnight stay with my mam to Center Parcs to force myself to not answer emails while brushing my teeth.

Hope all of the hardworking staff, teams and performers at @gildedballoon + across @edfringe are able to find some time for some much needed rest!! 🤍 taken in Center Parcs by @loisambert

THANK YOU @entertainment_nowuk for this iconic write-up from Mystic Malitza on her world-famous Fringe predictions!

For my astrology girlies SLAY was selected as one of The Best Shows to watch if you’re a Capricorn! 🐐

Capricorns: Ambitious. High standards. Darkly funny with a secretly soft centre… so this checks out for Kit and SLAY 😈💅🏼🔪♑️

For the full Zodiac Guide you can read it here: https://entertainment-now.com/2026/08/shes-back-mystic-malitza-brings-you-the-best-show-for-every-star-sign/

Thanks again Mystic Malitza, I’ve loved catching up on the press on SLAY 💜 taken in Gilded Balloon Teviot by @loisambert

If you’ve ever wondered what it looks like before I go on stage @stills_or_whatever perfectly captured it!

While you take your seats at the front of The Den, I prep round the back. I stretch, listen to meditation, and I change the background on my phone to a meme (just in case anyone sees it!) so look out if you’re coming today! I take three deep breaths, take my phone out and then if you’re lucky you’ll see Stuart before you go on to take your picture!!

This was before Saturdays incredible show.

TWO SHOWS LEFT!! And I would love to see you there! @gildedballoon | The Den | 3pm
