Strikes Back (Quartet & WIHMP @ Fringe)

We're Strikes Back, a group of young creatives from Oxford bringing TWO new writing shows to #EdFringe2022 22-27th! QUARTET ✂️ is about 4 sixth formers with some dark secrets. WHY I HATE MY PENIS 🍆 is about Grindr hookups, mistaken kisses & family tensions. #tweetthemedia

Hi there #edfringe friends!! No Strikes Back in Edinburgh this year but head over to @lovesongprods for a new show from last year's producing & marketing team!! SING, RIVER is a new queer folk musical, running at Pleasance Courtyard at 11.45am the whole month! ✨️🌿🪩

Just over three weeks until my debut play, SING, RIVER opens at @TheHopeTheatre! Weaving together an original folk score and tales from a romance best forgotten, the show invites you into the hidden world of British mythology 🧚‍♂️🌿 🎟️ Tickets/More Info: linktr.ee/singriverplay

so proud of everyone on this show — Sam’s writing is so good so this is so deserved.

"A stand out story that will stay with you after you leave the theatre" ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We're so thrilled that WHY I HATE MY PENIS has gotten a DOUBLE 4 STARS from @edfringe_review! Head over to their website to read the reviews in full... #edfringe

I’ve never been anywhere as overwhelming as #edfringe - but I’m loving seeing so many shows that I’d never have thought to see at home. I’m a flyerers dream- no planned shows just popping in to try anything.

We'd love to see some audience reviews on the #edfringe website!! If you've come along to QUARTET or WHY I HATE MY PENIS so far, head over and tell us what you thought!! If not, there's still time to catch both shows this week... 👀

Some of our favourite responses to WHY I HATE MY PENIS flyering so far... 👀🍆 "Oh NO" "Well actually I like my penis" *horrified expression* #edfringe #edfringe22

Gays?! In the theatre?! It's more likely than you think! Our 2022 programme boasts some of the most exciting and up-and-coming companies led by LGBTQ+ artists!! Today's 10@10 theme is... GREENSIDE PRIDE ❤️🧡💛💜💙💚🤎🖤

@3BUGSFringe Why I Hate My Penis Because Grindr hookups never quite go to plan. Because your sister has the perfect boyfriend. Because nobody fucks harder than God! A new one-man-show about growing up Black and gay. Playing @ Olive Studio, Infirmary St. 22-27 Aug tickets.edfringe.com/whats-on/why-i….

@fringebiscuit Hiya!! We would love to have you at WHY I HATE MY PENIS, @GreensideVenue 9pm!! Award-winning queer new writing about growing up Black and gay, from Grindr hookups to family tensions and closeted romance. 🍆📱👀🎟🎭 #edfringe #edfringe22

@FringeGuru Hi Richard! We'd love to see you at our show Why I Hate My Penis, @GreensideVenue 9pm this evening! A new one man show about Grindr hookups, family tensions & closeted romance. Hope to see you there!

Today we’re having another #QuickfireRound, where I pack in a load of shows I wouldn’t otherwise have time to cover. No published reviews, no star ratings, but instant responses here on Twitter. (Unless I have nothing positive to say, in which case we’ll forget I was ever there.)
