Tom’s portrayal of Quinten brings a nuanced, layered humanity to the role, balancing vulnerability, humor, and emotional depth with impressive ease. Rather than relying on big theatrical moments, Tom draws the audience in through subtle choices and authentic reactions, creating a character who feels fully realized and impossible to look away from or root for.
The supporting cast is equally committed, and all three complete the picture together well. Combined with a well-crafted script and thoughtful staging that moves the piece along well, the result is a production that feels purposeful, and emotionally resonant.
Fringe festivals are often a mixed bag, which makes discovering a production and performance like this all the more rewarding. A genuinely solid piece of Fringe theatre anchored by an exceptional lead performance from Tom as Quinten.
What I didn't like
It could definitely work as an hour play.
My overall impression
In a sea of Fringe productions, where enthusiasm often outpaces execution, it’s always a pleasure to encounter a show that genuinely feels like a breath of fresh air. This three-person production is solid. And has a superb and relatable performance at its center.
