1 day to go for Playing Latinx 🥑
Check out these recommendations for shows at just one of the festival's many unique performance spaces - 👇
Summer Camp for Broken People
The semi-autobiographical solo show is based on diary entries, letters, and essays written during time in a psychiatric hospital. It’s a bold, brave show about how mental illness infects our lives, our capacity for pain, and, ultimately, what it takes to put a shattered spirit back together.
Playing LatinX
Upon moving to London as an actor around nine years ago, Guido Lueches noticed that casting directors had a penchant for asking him to slip into any number of South American stereotypes. Now he takes back the power, welcoming audience members on stage to be the casting director and see how far he can take it. Sombrero and avocado costume, sir?
Party Scene
Diving into the underbelly of q***r culture, Party Scene asks the tough questions about drugs, s*x, consent, and mental health within the marginalized community. Performed by a cast of four, the performers push themselves to their limits in this hour long rave, a service to the joy that q***r men should have free access too, but still do not.
Bangers
A smash hit for campaigning theatre company Cardboard Citizens, Bangers is coming to Fringe for another glorious night of heady music, as two headliners crossfade between stories of love, s*x, and losing their creative spark. Set against a backdrop of precarious lives in urban London, and featuring original tracks inspired by early aughts and present-day R&B and garage music, Bangers is the perfect opener to a night out at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
