The Infant, Pleasance Courtyard. A little too ambiguous, but the high-octane performances keep this creepy play suspenseful and slick. 3/5
Josie Long, Pleasance Dome. Ever heartfelt, ever intelligent comedy from the Fringe's loveliest stand-up. You'll wish she was family. 3/5
Late Night Gimp Fight, Pleasance Courtyard. All-male sketch troupe, too many wanking jokes. Very little in the way of funny or clever. 2/5
Thirsty, Pleasance Courtyard. Precise and poignant, violent, daring and vulnerable: this is keen, rocket-fuelled performance. Strap in. 4/5
Thom Tuck, Pleasance Dome. Bizarrely uneven, but critically funny observations and a risky throughline delight and engage. Ambitious. 3/5
