If Walls Could Talk (Tip Of The Tongue Theatre Company)
By Ciara Knowles | Published on Wednesday 10 August 2011
Damp and dreary, the Edinburgh weather wasn’t putting many smiles on Festival-goers’ faces. So Tip Of The Tongue’s production of ‘If Walls Could Talk’ is just the happiness-boost to get people grinning. This bunch of student storytellers are far from damp and anything but dreary, and their short tales are heart-warming and personal without being overly gushy, quite a feat considering the range of issues covered, from ketchup stains on white trousers to watching a family member endure Parkinson’s Disease. Don’t expect the most visually astounding or hard-hitting of performances from this show, but do expect something completely charming. Definitely make the most of this sunny little Festival mini-gem.
C Aquila, 4 – 29 Aug, 12.15pm (1.15pm), £6.50 – £9.50, fpp270.
