Three recommended shows to see on Thursday 24 Aug…

The Delightful Sausage: Cold Hard Cache | Just The Tonic at The Caves | 1.00pm
This, our reviewer explains, is “a series of vignettes and sketches anchored by a ridiculous PowerPoint, which brim with ideas and creativity”. Concluding, our review notes: “This is the duo’s first Fringe show, and it’s a belter – keep an eye on them”.

The Road That Wasn’t There | Assembly Roxy | 2.35pm (pictured)
“We travel with the puppets up a ‘paper road’ to a mystical land full of surprises”, explains our review. The conclusion? “This is beautiful storytelling – lyrical, poignant and mysterious – which might just leave you believing the unbelievable”. Go see and believe.

We Are Ian | Pleasance Dome | 10.00pm
“Through clowning and frenetic dancing, the cast bounce around uncontrollably to some of Ian’s favourite tracks, reenacting a euphoric acid house danceathon with boundless energy”. Simple. Concludes our reviewer: “This is a fiercely imaginative, defiant production, proving how political and bold an act dancing can be”.
