FRINGE – Circus – Bubblewrap & Boxes – Bosco Theatre, Garden of Unearthly Delights – 3K

This is an unusual piece of physical theatre, designed to appeal to children, but with a plot-line and message that may only be clear to adults. The two performers are skilful acrobats and use their physicality well. 3K

FRINGE – Comedy – Sammy J & Randy in Bin Night – Le Cascadeur, Garden of Unearthly Delights – 4K

The success of this duo lies in their ability to bounce off one another, as well as their talent for finding the ridiculous in the mundane and running with it. ‘Bin Night’ is well paced, serving up several enjoyable songs, plenty of laughs and an over-arching storyline which is satisfyingly (and rather elaborately) concluded. 4K
