Edinburgh Fringe Round-Up

from Theatre Audience Podcast

Our Edinburgh Fringe reviewer Franki Rameaux joins us for a special Theatre Audience Podcast round-up, bringing back her verdict on some of the shows that caught her attention at this year's festival.The Edinburgh Festival Fringe is where theatre gets to take risks. New writing meets experimental performance, musicals emerge from the most unexpected places, artists test bold ideas in tiny rooms and audiences take chances on shows they might never encounter anywhere else. And with thousands of productions competing for attention, sometimes the real joy is discovering something you knew absolutely nothing about before walking through the door.Franki certainly put in the miles this year, seeing a huge range of work across the Fringe. In this episode, we focus on seven productions: See You Tomorrow, HAM, Belly, January 6th: The Musical, Bodytrapped, Under the Influence and Bliss.From intimate storytelling and provocative new writing to comedy, music and performances tackling identity, politics and the pressures of contemporary life, it's an eclectic snapshot of exactly what makes Edinburgh such an exciting - and occasionally unpredictable - place to experience theatre.What surprised her? What stayed with her? Which productions deserve a life beyond Edinburgh? And, most importantly, which shows would she tell you to book if you had the chance?Join Franki and the Theatre Audience Podcast team as we unpack the highs, discoveries and talking points from another gloriously packed Edinburgh Festival Fringe.Seven shows. Seven very different experiences. Welcome to our Edinburgh Fringe Round-Up. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
