Eggs Aren't That Easy to Make
“If I’m in a lesbian relationship when I’m older, I want you to be the sperm donor”, Claire says to her best friend, Dan, while drunk at a uni party. “Okay, it’s a deal”. Flash forward ten years and the two friends are making good on their promise. Having your best friend be your sperm donor - what could go wrong? Big Sofa Theatre presents a queer rom-com, written by Maria Telnikoff (Previously at Underbelly: “My Dad Wears A Dress”, “All The Men Are Going To Hate Me”), directed by Lauren Tranter.
Song Society
Deep in the heart of the mysterious Song Society, memories and feelings are filed away to make room for new ones. But when a stubborn case resists being archived, the Songkeeper is pulled into a journey that challenges everything she knows about the stories that make us whole. A one-person musical by award-winning writer/performer Florencia Iriondo, woven with an original acoustic folk-pop score that echoes long after the final note.
Miss Brexit
Extravagant musical satire about young migrants surviving in a place that no longer welcomes them. Meet real people facing the consequences of Brexit and how it's affected their future. What does it take to become Miss Brexit? Who is capable of erasing their identity in order to talk, think and live like a Brit? Who is willing to exchange their national cuisine for mashed potato? Danail Chirpansky New Work Award Winner.
Ben Goldsmith: CrimeLandTown
'An insane amount of fun' (TheWeeReview.com). Mafia-themed whodunnit CrimeLandTown returns to EdFringe. Ben Goldsmith plays every character in a hilarious and one-of-a-kind screwball comedy about a wannabe gangster who never made the grade, so ended up singing in a dive-bar. What a schmuck! Don't miss a show described as gloriously silly, epic and weird, performed with enviable vim by a versatile talent with nimble aplomb.
