It may be early to say this, but Soul Maker is my Fringe ‘26 ultimate favorite. The atmosphere, the acting, the story, were all beautifully executed.
As soon as you enter the theatre the vibe is immediately established. You can experience the performance from the traditional seating or onstage with the gorgeous representational set (which also serves as a ‘theatre in the round’).
The lighting design by Christian Ching was a particular favorite of mine. It served to cement the magical realism elements of this story and seamlessly aid in the atmosphere of Flo’s emotional journey.
Every aspect of this production blew me away. You cannot let this year’s fest go by without seeing this show.
TLDR; Go see this show. Fricken seriously, go see this show.
