Ed Fringe Review

Ed Fringe Review Want the undiscovered Fringe? We're here for you. We review student, amateur and Free Fringe plays. Navigating the Edinburgh Fringe Festival can be a nightmare.

With such a lot on offer, how do you know what's worth seeing? That's when we step in. Edfringereview.com (EFR) reviews and promotes the best of the undiscovered Fringe. We focus on student and amateur productions which rarely receive the press coverage they deserve. We send two student reviewers (from Bristol, Cambridge, Durham and Oxford) to school and university productions, Free Fringe shows,

and to a variety of amateur and professional performances. By providing two reviews of each performance, we hope to encourage active debate. If you want to find the best of the Fringe, have a browse of our site! And if you want us to review one of your shows, click here! http://edfringereview.com/want_us_to_review

Alan Davies spoke to EFR about pharmacies, Fringe and his early forays into the world of comedy 37 years on from his first Edinburgh performance. It’s fair to say his priorities have changed since then.

She’s a rising star who began her career in as a woman in STEM but swwitched to doing stand up during lockdown — and she hasn’t looked back since. Kurup was the 2023 West End New Act of the Year and a finalist in last year’s Sean Lock comedy award. She talked to Ella Rowlands about therapy, tough crowds and her obsession with Fast and Furious.
