Sean’s Show Schedule for
2025
This year I have my wife, Debbie, has joined me
again. She’ll be seeing fewer shows than
me, but still see around six a day. She likes
quirkier shows than I do, so the selections don’t reflect just my tastes. We will still see all the Traverse has to
offer, and see Out of the Blue on the last day.
To accommodate the fact that there are more shows with short runs this
year, we have had to run around more this year, particularly in the early part
of the schedule. The 17th to
19th are unusual because we will spend those days with our good
friend Tim, who chose the plays on those days.
He is an expert in theatre, and we would be fools to miss any show he
suggests. I have also been asked to
review seven shows this year, and I wouldn’t have scheduled a few of them. It will be fun to step even further out of my
comfort zone. That is part of what make
the Fringe so wonderful!
If you wish to view some play(s) with us, please
send me e-mail: sean@fringefan.com, or
just come to the front of the line at our scheduled play, and we will be there
chatting away with our neighbors.
You can change the sorting column of the table by
first clicking anywhere in its header.

the column clicked. Succeeding clicks of
a column will reverse the sort. Note
that July dates are negative to allow them to be at the top of the table when
sorted by date.
