My cheeks hurt from smiling so much

The most incredible team, an AWESOME job, and a whole lot of gratitude for this past month 💛

The worst part of seeing 41 shows at Edinburgh Fringe is realizing there were approximately 3000 MORE I could have seen. 😭

These are the shows I kept hearing people RAVE about, walked past approximately 900 posters for, attempted to see but they were (congrats) sold out or found out after I left and immediately thought WHY DIDN’T I FIT THIS INTO MY SCHEDULE?!

So learn from my mistakes: if you’re still at Fringe, you have a few more days to catch them!!

And to all of these shows… I am formally requesting a New York transfer OR a Fringe 2027 return because the FOMO is very, very real.

What show did you miss this year that wish you had seen?

between shows we’ve been scurrying around town and laughing weeping rejoicing and getting artistically inspired by all of the good STUFF we’ve been seeing! here are a few gems that got us excited

we are geeks for a good new PLAY - the original kernels of our show came from our show’s creator grappling with her own experiences with sexual assault. we loved seeing another show grappling with the same complicated tangled gnarly mess of it all. great great performances and fantastic writing.

we’ve been hotter project fans since our very first fringe but ham blew past our (already high) expectations and shot immediately to the top of our lists. book it instantly. i’m so sorry we do eat the dog.

it’s absolutely tragic that creepy boys are running the same time slot as us. all the best shows are at 10PM. our musical managed to sneak by and see it before our first preview and came out buzzing.

our first show of the fringe and unfortunately possibly the best thing we will see all month. we don’t even want to tell you to book it bc we want there to be seats available so we can see it again.

✴️ RBC Edinburgh Fringe Spotlight ✴️

Lots of our talented graduates and current students from the BA, MA and MFA in Acting will be in Edinburgh this year for the Fringe.

If you're up in Edinburgh this year, be sure to go and check out their shows 🎭

Swipe for info on the upcoming shows!

Spare Room

Inspired by true events, the five-star smash hit play Spare Room follows Jodie as she takes the plunge and applies for a room in a house share. Confronted with the unexpected world of chunder charts, STIs and tangible testosterone, this wasn’t the fresh start Jodie imagined.

Entirely set in a student living room, expect to be thoroughly immersed in the lives of these badly behaved twenty-somethings who’ll leave you cackling one minute and speechless the next, in this honest insight into masculinity, mental health and consent.

🏆 Nominated for five Fringe theatre awards including Best New Play

🪩 Proudly in partnership with @enoughtoendrape and @headsupguys

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ `The comedy is phenomenal, the cast is sensational, everything just works’ - The Obscurity

We Had Fun

Where did it all go wrong? Well, it depends who you ask. Close friends Oscar and Ela navigate the fallout of a drunken sexual encounter as their conflicting versions of events are replayed, rewound and re-written against the sensory medley of a wild night out.

Olivier & Tony nominated Carrie-Anne Ingrouille (SIX the Musical) directs the World Premiere of this anti-romcom and ‘fascinating exploration’ (Daniel Finkelstein, The Times) of the greyest areas of consent and sexual politics.

6-31 Aug (not 18 & 25), 6pm @ Summerhall (Old Lab)

Three | Not I, Eh Joe, Rockaby
by Samuel Beckett

Three by Samuel Beckett – Not I, Eh Joe, Rockaby combines live performance and film to explore the
conversation between three seminal Beckett works. Written between 1965 and 1980, the plays become
diﬀerent rooms in the same strange house—interconnected meditations on memory, identity, and the stories we tell ourselves.

Directed by Timothy McCracken and Kelly McAllister, this piece features live p

Interested in assisting some funding for @briancohalloran friend's play "We Had Fun"?

It feels great to help others, I was able to donate a small amount. It doesn't have to be much, they're grateful just for watching and caring.
