FEMPIRE at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe!
MESS written and performed by Kirsten Vangsness directed by Lisa Sanaye Dring CLEO, THEO & WU written by Kirsten Vangsness directed by Lisa Sanaye Dring 'Best Quantum Physics Joke' of the Fringe by The Scotsman “Why is Heisenberg’s wife angry? Because when he has the time he doesn’t have the energy.” Thank you Kirsten Vangsness, whose show Mess, about childhood trauma, the nature of time, and kittens, was full of lots of other funny things that only really made any sense in context, and sometimes didn’t make any sense even there, but in a good way. https://www.scotsman.com/arts-and-culture/edinburgh-festivals/andrew-eaton-lewis-gongs-that-really-matter-from-first-principles-to-final-apologies-1-4991403 FIVE STARS for Cleo, Theo and Wu: "I left it thinking I need to bring every girl I know to see this show...It's very well written, it's very well performed with an incredibly talented cast." Edinburgh Culture Review https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j3VjHItJK9E FIVE STARS for Mess: "Her high-brow show is a groaning buffet of loop-the-loop logic and cosmic questioning; delivered in inimitable style."

Lucy Dison, Voice Maghttps://www.voicemag.uk/review/5998/fempire-mess-kirsten-vangness FOUR STARS for Mess: "A cascade of emotion and non-sequential events, like Pinter, this Mess is not so much to be analysed but experienced, a maelstrom of joy and anguish" Michael Flett, SG Fringe http://sgfringe.com/?p=3636 FOUR STARS for Cleo, Theo & Wu: "An empowering and uplifting feminist fairytale, in her pillarbox red dress – with pockets! – Vangsness is the eye of the hurricane who brings focus to this restless raw energy, vulnerable and funny as Lucy" Michael Flett, SG Fringe http://sgfringe.com/?p=3590 https://www.assemblyfestival.com/whats-on/fempire-cleo-theo-wu-by-kirsten-vangsness https://www.assemblyfestival.com/whats-on/fempire-mess-by-kirsten-vangsness |
