24,23,22 (Chronic Insanity)
By Andrew Melrose | Published on Monday 21 August 2023
This will be the show that I will be talking about to everyone this August. I was kept amazed throughout the entire performance, a piece of quality gig-theatre featuring some of the most clever writing I’ve seen, that I can honestly say blew my mind. It’s a show that you want to take back and experience all over again. The two performers are entirely enthralling and give all the energy and emotion needed throughout – they don’t need any elaborate staging, as they carry the show with their presence. The gig theatre style works well, as the live music is funky, adds depth and immerses the audience more: it ticks all the boxes for me in what is a noteworthy contribution to the genre.
Underbelly Cowgate, until 27 Aug.
