I’m not a religious person, but I have for a long time fantasised about taking a month or so to walk the Camino de Santiago in Spain, a network of pilgrimage routes that lead to the tomb of Saint James in the cathedral of Santiago de Compostela. Some of the routes are shorter, but the longest are quite a challenge. I was therefore immediately interested when I heard about writer-performer Susan Edsall’s ‘Buen Camino’, a one woman show about the creator’s own experiences of walking the Camino.

Candace Bryan isn’t a stranger to the Fringe and you may well have witnessed her first foray into the fray back in 2023. But this year she presents her first one hour show and we are very much here for it, not least because of the real life experiences it draws on. ‘MILF’ sees Bryan exploring events that befell her in 2024, while also telling the story of growing up without her mother present, and what happened when she came back into her life.

LA-based actor, comedian and writer Woody Fu is a frequent presence on US TV screens – and has some experience of performing at the Fringe before in some of our favourite shows – so it’s great to see him headed to Edinburgh with his own, very promising solo show.  It’s an homage to both Keanu Reeves and his alter-ego John Wick, and I sense that it will be a very funny and unique experience. To find out more about Woody, and the show, I arranged a pre-Fringe chat.

She has even won two Emmys for her work in sports documentary storytelling. This summer, however, she’s headed to the Edinburgh Festival Fringe to perform a one woman show based on her own story, her experiences of chronic pain and the gender health gap.

ED2024 Reviews ED2024 Theatre ReviewsBased on an intriguing idea – a dog’s eye view of the world – engaging puppetry, atmospheric dolls house settings, and good music, give this technically accomplished show a solid foundation. A cleverly designed puppet dog allows the audience to invent and then empathise with its feelings, but the dog’s perspective is ultimately little more than a low viewing angle.
