Snug, Patter Hoose, Gilded Baloon

Show was good; didn't notice the seats. A recommendation for both!

⭐⭐⭐⭐

The Studio, Monkey Barrel Comedy

Wide, cushioned, much legroom; still insufficient back support.

⭐⭐⭐. 5

Completed my one day of the Edinburgh Festival yesterday and closed it off with Do The Thing: Choose Your Own Musical, and honestly I cannot recommend it enough to anyone who will be through in Edinburgh while it’s on (until 16th August)!

We got there super early and ended up sitting in the front row, which meant I got picked to make choices throughout the show. As a PhD student, I panicked when asked to name a group of people, and came out with “professors” 😂 At least now I got to hear from @stellarfirmatim that I’ll need to drink piss when I finish my doctorate in a couple of years, something my supervisor (a professor… 👀) has been remarkably quiet about!

It was a genuinely great show, I was crying with laughter at one point which is not common for me at all. My only wish is that there had been a few more jokes about new Labour 🤷🏻‍♀️

the last song. the grand finale. featuring acaster at his most unhinged and almost breaking a mic by essentially throwing it into the crowd.

If you made it this far and watched everything, congrats you are super duper cool and I love you for that :)

(also i apologize for the quality as I had to compress alot of the videos in order to post them but if for any reason someone wants the higher quality version of any video, I will happily share)
