Tickets to our run at @edfringe are now live!! Burned Out! Is a story of the damning effects of greed on the human condition. If topical theatre with a touch of light hearted, working class grit is your thing then you won't want to miss this!! Aug 4-19 @theSpaceUK Surgeons hall

Here is a thread of things I loved at @edfringe 🎭- usual rules apply (I am there for 3 days, I see things for a huge variety of reasons, I tell you about the things I liked and not about things I didn't):

The surprise of the fringe for me was @BurnedOutPlay - a brilliant new writing company, based around the corner from me, and I didn't even know?! Super incisive writing, sharp performances and urgent storytelling. It's their last show today so catch it if you can!

Another lovely review 🤩
Replying to @cvjoicey
#BurnedOut @burnedoutplay - Heartwarming, frustrating, shocking, powerful, incredibly moving. A love letter to all our NHS workers, and those who don’t realise the power of the system until they have to.
