EDINBURGH FRINGE REVIEWS INCLUDE:
“Fantastic” 5/5
“Inventive, tender and quietly devastating. By weaving together several performance languages, the show pulls you inside a mother-son relationship built on the courage to move beyond your own patterns for love. Genuinely funny, yet I cried from start to finish”
“Often funny, sometimes achingly sad, ‘Forgive Me’ is a beautiful, raw multi-layered rendering of the confounding frailty of parenthood. Highly recommend”
“I also laughed and cried – the pace and mood can change abruptly. The serious and tragic issues raised are wrapped with some feisty acrobatics and singing, high energy posturing and humour, kind audience interaction, and perhaps a date for the lucky one. Highly Recommended. (Thankfully my tears had dried at the end buy bring a tissue)”
“Absolutely brilliant, this isn’t just an autobiograpical true expression of Tamsin life this is also a refined creative piece executed exquisitely in dance, song, acting and visual creativity. I laughed, I cried, I left inspired and empowered. There is so much crap at the fringe it is so wonderful to experience a piece that is so ready for the stage. Thank you”
“The performer’s range of skills in pole work, singing, dramatic and comic acting and storytelling was awesome and breathtaking!”
