Tutti Frutti Circus & Cabaret Chaos is an excellent show featuring some gloriously campy, magnificently odd and in some cases genuinely absurd weirdos masquerading as Fringe performers. All I’ll say if this is weird, don’t you dare call me normal! And how good is Fringe! 

This show was fast paced and jam packed with burlesque, circus and fire acts that would not be out of place headlining entire shows. The energy the artists poured into their acts was obvious and resonated from the stage. Everyone on stage looked like they were having such a good time which always makes me have a better time. Which invariably leads to me screaming another tent down. Apologies to whoever was sitting next to me this time ! 

The creativity demonstrated by the artists was off the charts. I saw so many things Id never seen before and I definitely left thinking I needed to make sure some of my producer friends were aware of some of the lesser known (to me) performers. One thing that stood out to me was that the performers were relying to absolutely sublime acting skills to create stage personas. It really elevated a lot of the performances from something great to something BRILLIANT.

Tutti Frutti Circus & Cabaret Chaos is a brilliantly curated show with a cast of genuinely exceptional performers that I was so happy to get the chance to see. The show is fast paced, engaging and most of all fun. Capital F. 

Tutti Frutti Circus & Cabaret Chaos is the perfect choice for a light hearted hour of entertainment. More so if you like your shows when they don’t take themselves too seriously, are a little campy and a lot ridiculous! 


I enjoyed this a lot and I think you will too.
