This is a compelling show. It is a drama with no more plotline than one man’s ordinary life and another’s effort to learn from, and understand, it. It is also a very funny and uplifting experience, with Kitson’s wonderful comic ability shining throughout his telling of the story. 4.5K

This is not the usual Fringe fare, being a play more suited to the annual programme of one of the well-established local amateur theatre companies. However, for what it is, it is done well and will appeal to those people who are looking for something a little more traditional in their festival experience. 3.5K

Paul Slack delivers a powerful one-man performance of the young D. H. Lawrence in Phoenix Rising, a play about a man on the verge of becoming one of English literature’s canonical writers and thinkers.
