Fish Bowl

Ben's review:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

 3 very different people forced together through affordable long, this os the future for us all. And whilst some of the things that happen may be truly shocking, we have our housemates there to help.

 A great piece of physical theatre to start your day off, unlike any other physical theatre I've seen here the focus is not on showing off a well trimmed body but on giving the audience real life comedy and it is wonderful.

The girlfriend's review:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

An excellent physical comedy piece showing three people living very different lives in apartments side by side.

The set for this one is a masterpiece with so many creative bits to it.

Make sure you stay after the bows for a little treat!

Review: Courtney Act: The Girl from Oz

When: 18th-20th, 22nd-26th August at 6pm Where: Underbelly's Circus hub on the Meadows (Venue 360) Additional performance: August 22nd at 23:45, Underbelly George Square (Venue 300) Ben's review: 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 This was a much better performance than I was expecting. The songs were on point and her jokes were very funny, if you've watched RuPauls Drag Race. That show has made such drag acts accessible to the public and you can really see the benefit in Courteneys show. If you haven't watched drag race then certain bits might go over your head but you'll still be able to enjoy the incredible vocal range and her on stage antics. The Girlfriend's review: 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 This woman's vocal range is absolutely incredible! She hit some beautiful notes as she took us through a wide range of music from Australian performers, my personal  favourite song was her unique take on the Bee Gees 'Staying Alive'. Vocal talents aside she looked incredible, w

Unmeetables

Ben's review: ⭐⭐⭐  There's quite a moral story behind this and it is really well acted by this one man act. Questions are posed and I'd love to see an extra half hour audience feedback session after this because you could get some great ideas.   On the negative side there is quite a lot of black space between scenes, and the final cut is ever so slightly over played. But given what was available to him he has done a great job.  Ps. Making clothes out of recycled plastic is a real thing now and is being done fantastically well, the great work of that does not need to be subverted. The girlfriend's review: ⭐⭐⭐ This is a really strong one-person show. Representing how people in authority don't always understand the problems they are tackling. The performance and script was strong. Unfortunately, they were several long pauses whilst the actor changed off stage. This takes you out of the action, it would help to fill the silence with music/voiceovers/vide

Showstopper! The Improvised Musical

Ben's review: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐  The first standing ovation of the fringe, they are all so fabulously talented and could tell you a story out of anything. The compère joins in too trying to catch out the act, which is my favourite part of improv. I would watch this again and again. The girlfriend's review: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This troop are so slick and polished that you almost forget that it is improvised. The cast work together so well, joking together and trying to catch one another out. Having a compère for the show really helps to keep things on track and him being able to intervene really helps with the madness. If you are going to see one piece of improv at the Fringe, it should be this one!
