Voicebox: Brighton Fringe

A socially and politically savvy work-in-progress comedy set, which offers a hilarious take on life in Britain today.

A perfectly crafted and emotionally charged show about one man's experience of homophobia that presents a profound reflection on the development of our society's attitudes towards gay people.

A wonderfully gripping spy thriller which explores the themes of love, loyalty, class and politics.

Daniel Bye goes through the trials and tribulations of hypochondria, disease and epidemic; leaving the audience suddenly very aware of their own coughs and splutters.

This weekend, Secret Opera presented a devised adaptation of the popular opera Carmen by Georges Bizet (1838 – 75). Directed by Robin Pieta, a well-established opera singer, who also took on the role of Jose, the sexually confused protagonist of the play.

Boundless energy and fast-paced sketches had the audience guffawing with laughter throughout this hour-long show, where adult (should that be child?) humour scored the biggest laughs.

A hilarious comedy play that took on the ridiculousness of pop culture and modern life.

A wholly immersive experience that enabled the audience to step straight into Shakespeare's world of tragedy and trauma.

The Ethereal plane collides with reality in this suspenseful, church-set show.

A great art scene, buzzing crowds and new discoveries about love. It's been almost 3 weeks since my visit to Brighton Fringe, and of course, I want to go back.

One phenomenal actor, one stunning live musician and one elegant piece of verse topped off with some top notch direction, this play ticks all the boxes for a tip top night at the theatre. A must see.

Three identically and unusually dressed strangers turn up at a girl's doorstep in the middle of a snowy night. An intriguing premise for an intricate plot, a philosophical reflection, and a very funny show.
