My Melodrama
The best show I saw in Edinburgh.
Catch while you still can
Aether
Fresh from its sold-out run at the 2025 edition of Edinburgh Fringe, Aether makes its London premiere. Author/Director Emma Howlett is a rising star with a background in ensemble theatre as is brilliantly on show here.
The Story: A PhD student hunting dark matter collides with a disillusioned illusionist, a teenage medium with a secret, a murdered mathematician, and a trail-blazing astronomer to investigate the greatest unsolved mystery of the universe. If this theme seems a tad heavy for a night at the theatre, rest assured that the subject-matter has been treated with perfect lightness.
