I wasn’t sure what to expect walking into this show, but it turned out to be such a fun, fascinating and engaging Fringe experience.

The wrestlers brought plenty of personality and humour, which made the show entertaining from start to finish. The host did a fantastic job explaining the importance of sumo wrestling and the rich cultural traditions behind it, in a way that was easy to understand and really held the audience’s attention.

One of the biggest highlights was the audience participation, where volunteers were invited on stage to suit up in their own sumo outfits and try it for themselves. This had the crowd laughing and cheering, and the older kids absolutely loved seeing everyday people step into the ring.

It was the perfect mix of action, education and entertainment that had us completely captivated. A truly unique Fringe experience and definitely something a little different to add to your family’s Fringe list.
