'Go for the cat-worship, stay for the side-splitting silliness, and rave about it to all your friends... Catts is like nothing you've ever seen before' ***** (ToDoList.London). Everybody wants to be a cat, because a cat is just a cat... From 'acclaimed clown' (ToDoList.London) and emerging idiot Frankie Thompson, an anarchic one-woman adaptation of Cats (the musical). But not about cats, not about musicals, not about Cats the musical. Catts is a lip-sync ballet through the distractions and obsessions that help us cope with an increasingly dystopian reality. Because after all, wouldn't we rather think about cats?

16 shows to see at Edinburgh Fringe

My major recommendation would be, after you've booked to see every one of the below shows, have a look on their socials at who they're excited about -- as much as writers would love you to take our word as gospel, no one knows better than they do!
