more than one string
What an absolute joy to see Dame Maureen Lipman on stage. A masterclass in natural acting. Happy sigh.
My own personal ⭐⭐⭐⭐ rating is merely due to this needing bedding in, once two out of the four actors relax into it a bit, it will certainly be worth 5 stars. Maureen Lipman herself is ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ all by herself. And a stunning play to boot.
The more you think about this, the more fascinating it becomes. You could get lost in thinking about it.
Rotunda Bubble, Brighton Fringe, 12 May 2026.
This was so good. A solid 4 stars and it wouldn’t take much to get to get to 5. Felix le Freak could be a huge star – such a talent.
This was so thought provoking: really self reflection inspiring. Beautiful work by emotionally mature young people.
I wanted to love this – I really did. I left asking so many questions. Good marketing, and the place was packed. The play needs a good editor to work on the next version with the playwright, then it could become something exceptional.
This was stunning. So close to five stars it’s theirs to reach and touch.
An enjoyable tense piece. I love a thriller. Seen on opening night, this may well have changed as the run progressed becoming better and better.
Stunning theatre. It might be back before the end of the Fringe, if it is, go. A must see.
UPDATE! It will be back 19 and 20 May! Tickets here
Happy Brighton Fringe everyone!
I wish you a happy and successful Fringe this year whether you’re performing or watching. I will be in a show as well but more about this in another post.
To everyone who has contacted me about a review – thank you, I can’t reply to them all sadly as I get hundreds asking for reviews at the Fringe. I have a full Fringe reviewing scheduled now and hope to meet some of you afterwards.
See you then! Susanne
We open tonight! Just take a look at these beautiful photos from Miles Davies. He’s captured it beautifully. It’s going to be a gorgeous show! Book here
