With less than a week to go before the 2019 VAULT Festival opens, I wade my way through the catalogue and come up with 20 shows I think you should catch – in their own words.
‘Exploring the imbalance between the sexes for a deadly purpose’: LADYKILLER – Edinburgh Fringe ★★★★
Ladykiller is a compelling one-woman show that explores the imbalance between the sexes for a deadly purpose – Hannah McClean is breathtaking.
‘A perverse figurehead for female empowerment’: LADYKILLER – Edinburgh Fringe
Writer Madeline Gould’s pitch black play Ladykiller perverts stereotypes to explore female criminality but more than that. Her (Hannah McClean) uses female stereotypes to her murderous advantage.
‘She is dark, she is dangerous & she is covered in blood’: Actress Hannah McClean becomes a Ladykiller at this year’s Edinburgh Fringe
Most recently seen in London with the Offie-nominated Coconut, The Thelmas makes its Edinburgh debut with Ladykiller by Madeline Gould, which opened at The Pleasance on 1 August 2018 and features Hannah McClean.
