Fringe Review: Fishbowl *****

Not a single word is spoken by the three brilliant actors who bring this story to life

Fishbowl *****  (Pleasance), 1.00 pm, until August 26.

Simply, the best show I’ve seen so far at the 2019 Fringe.

Not a single word is spoken by the three brilliant actors who bring to life this story of three eccentric rooftop neighbours who form tentative friendships - and more - despite having little in common.

They are surrounded by an ingenious set which plays a huge part in the production, and makes this head and shoulders above all other comedy theatre.

The show is packed throughout with  delights as the trio climb in and around their own tiny flats, making brilliant use of every available prop and piece of space.

And, as we get to know them, so the fabulous story at the  heart of Fishbowl reveals itself.


This is a real gem of a show - a genuine treat and a glorious piece of outstanding comedy theatre which takes the timeless art of slapstick to a whole new level.
