Period Problems is a lively and heartfelt show that mixes music, humour, and storytelling into an experience that feels both personal and universal. Lita’s sharp wit and openness turn everyday struggles into moments of laughter and connection, while also sharing touching stories about living with chronic illness. Christina’s visuals add playful bursts of creativity, making the show dynamic and fun to watch. It’s funny, uplifting, and full of heart, a celebration of resilience and honesty that will leave you smiling.
Drag Me to the Opera delivers plenty of laughs and glitter, but what makes it stand out is the honesty underneath. Aida Cupcake blends drag, comedy, and soaring opera with a moving story about chasing big dreams while wrestling with doubt. The mix of humour and vulnerability keeps the show both entertaining and relatable. It’s bold, heartfelt, and one of those Fringe shows that stays with you long after the final note.
Paloma & Joy is not your average magic show. What starts off with comedy and glitz soon turns darker, exposing the desperation of performers chasing fame and the ugly truths of colonialism beneath the spectacle. The white tiger is more than just a gimmick it becomes a sharp reminder of how easily people are treated as props. The performances kept me laughing one moment and uneasy the next, which made the message land even harder. Strange, clever, and bold, this show is one that sticks with you.
52 Stories invites the audience into the memory palace of award-winning storyteller Dave Morris. Through tales of family, friends, love, loss, and memory itself, Morris weaves together moments that are both heartwarming and heartbreaking. I wasn’t expecting to have tears falling down, but they were sometimes from laughter, sometimes from sadness. His natural presence and gift for connection make each story feel intimate and alive. Thoughtful, moving, and beautifully told, this show is a gentle reminder of the power of stories to shape how we remember. Definitely recommend seeing this one!
Eurovision superfan Matti McLean (or Shayne, if you don’t know him ) takes the stage with a joyful deep dive into the world’s biggest song contest. With heart, hilarity, and plenty of charm, he makes the magic of Eurovision feel irresistible even to those who’ve never watched a final. His energy, storytelling, and love for the music create a fun and welcoming crash course in a true cultural phenomenon. Whether you’re already a fan or just Eurovision curious, this show is pure celebration. Definitely worth seeing, and I so do recommend it!!!
No Worries If Not is Katie-Ellen Humphries’ hilarious and heartfelt solo show about being a lifelong people pleaser. With sharp jokes and relatable stories about love, lying, and even laundry, she mixes honesty with comedy in a way that feels both personal and universal. Her quick wit and warm presence keep the audience laughing while also nodding in recognition. Smart, surprising, and very funny, this is a Fringe show you’ll be glad you said yes to.
Shakespeare with a a side of brains This Play has Zombies mixes Shakespeare with a survival horror as a theatre troupe’s rehearsal of Henry the Vth gets interrupted by a zombie apocalypse. The casts response is to lean into their stage knowledge and over the top dramatics, mixing laughs with real moments of tension as the audience starts to connect with the characters on a deeper level. Using some pop culture references, puns and comedic timing made the show fly by. Of course the zombie chaos made the audience always be at the edge of their seat. It’s a funny, clever and full of bite, a solid Fringe show for lovers of plays that have zombies in them!
A Beak of Suspense
The Family Crow: A Murder Mystery is a clever mix of puppetry, puns, and playful mystery. Horatio P. Corvus works to solve a family murder, keeping the audience laughing and guessing the whole time. The puns completely stole the show, with plenty of fun audience interaction that made the performance feel personal. The plot twist landed well and gave the mystery a satisfying finish. Smart, silly, and a little bizarre, this award-winning Fringe hit is a must-see.
Revenge of the Canada Geese
Goose! by Andrew Broaddus takes a strange and funny idea about Canada geese eating people and turns it into a mix of comedy and drama. The story follows survivors (the audience) in Edmonton hiding in a building led by Brandon. When Janice arrives, she and Brandon clash, leading to tense moments, quick jokes, and tough choices about survival. The acting was excellent, with each performer making their character feel real and showing both personality and stress. The tension between Brandon and Janice kept the story exciting. Some slower scenes gave time to think, but the story always picked up again. Goose! is weird, fun, and a little bizarre, mixing humour with suspense in a way that’s worth seeing.
