Three To See on 14 Aug: Belly Of A Drunken Piano, Six, Felicity Ward
By ThreeWeeks Editorial | Published on Tuesday 14 August 2018
Three recommended shows to see on Tuesday 14 Aug…
Belly Of A Drunken Piano | Assembly Rooms | 6.15pm
This hour of rhythm and blues made our reviewer “nostalgic for smoky basement clubs with sticky floors and disreputable company”. She adds that “Stewart D’Arrietta had some great stories; he and his excellent band played his own songs in addition to music by Tom Waits, Leonard Cohen and – joy of joys – the late, great Ian Drury”.
Six | Underbelly George Square | 7.30pm (pictured)
This 5/5 musical features a pop band made up of Henry VIII’s six wives no less. In a “truly kick-ass performance” it presents a “concert that packs a punch in the face to the patriarchy”. Concludes our reviewer: “Sequinned, slick and with stunning costumes, this group has serious power”.
Felicity Ward: Busting A Nut | Pleasance Courtyard | 9.00pm
And finally some recommended comedy for you. “Having taken a year off from the Fringe, Felicity Ward is back with a sparky show that merrily swaggers along”, states our review. “It’s a solid, polished hour of entertainment that proves why Ward remains a Fringe favourite”.
