The Fringe schedule adds constraints to some Traverse Theatre productions, but I enjoyed Same Team just as much as the original, last year. So much energy, joy and emotion from the cast of five amazing talents!

all edfringe shows that win awards are deserving. But I want to see shows without funding or huge support winning awards! Shows without PR or polish, shows that only exist because of a crowdfunder and a mad dream. The playing field is so unequal...but that’s fringe I guess🤷🏻‍♀️
