Theatre review: (Ab)solution, Greenside@Infirmary Street, Edinburgh


(Ab)solution, Greenside@Infirmary Street, Edinburgh * *
Three brothers go to confession in a bid to absolve themselves of their sins – many of them hurting the same woman, Fiona (Hollie Wade).
Sex addiction, repressed homosexuality, drugs, gambling – all human life is here which gives the lads plenty of excuses to indulge in tremulous voices, shaky hands and LOTS AND LOTS OF SHOUTING.

Hide AdIt’s like Pedro Almodovar directing a bonkers episode of Coronation Street but none of the laughs are intentional. Wade does well to keep a straight face throughout, however, and at least it’s never dull.
Until 24 August
