Our Town Needs A Nando’s
★★★☆☆ Relatably painful
Our Town Needs A Nando’s, from Hot Mess Productions at theSpace on the Mile for the first week of the Fringe, is a relatable and lived-in coming-of-age comedy with dark themes.
Waiting for Wonka
★★★☆☆ Sweetly sick satire
Waiting for Wonka at Gilded Balloon’s Patter House delivers deliciously on its billing as an unauthorised parody sequel to Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, with slick performances and sly digs at the attention economy.
Waiting for Wonka
★★★☆☆ Overstretched
Half Trick’s Waiting for Wonka at Augustine Church has plenty of ideas, excellent staging and some genuinely terrific performances, but never quite convinces in the way it threatens to.
