Back Seat

Absolutely loved this, such a good concept, and so well executed. (Did anyone else think this would be a good Netflix special? Preferably adapted by Neil Gaiman.)

Brilliantly paced, witty and moving, with captivating performances bringing to life some fantastic characters. Definately a fringe highlight from a very talented cast and crew.

This show is practically perfect in every way; Acting, writing, design, and direction, all 10/10. Cancel all of your evening plans and go and see this before it’s gone, you will not regret it.

Two incredible actors and a weird, rich and clever script. Back Seat is very hard to stop thinking about and very, very good!

Such an engaging watch, with so many incredible twists and turns. Acting was phenomenal !

Brilliant show with incredible acting! A story that you go home thinking about

I watched Back Seat tonight and I have left with my friends absolutely speechless. Amazing writing & directing. The actors did a fabulous job being super naturalistic - I thought I was there with them.

A must see show at Fringe ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.

Really clever writing with brilliant acting too. One of those shows you talk about the whole journey home (we did!)

Absolutely remarkable, one of the best shows that I have seen. It was a show that left me on the edge of my seat unsure of what would come next. The writing (though confusing as absurdist theatre is) was amazing, it opened up the door to a lot of interesting conversations with yourself and with others. Very impactful easily a 5 star from me ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

An intense and captivating hour. The actors were incredible and did credit to the naturalistic script.

Really interesting show. I was riveted from the start. I can't say I understood it but the 2 actors were both wonderful and deserve great credit. Quite intense and immersive! Solid 4*

One of the best shows I have seen at the Fringe this year.
Superbly written, acted and directed. Two very engaging characters, some mystery and lots of surprises.
I was spellbound.

An absolutely phenomenal show. I was completely blown away by the well-paced, witty writing, and the two performers are outstanding. A Fringe must-see.

Fantastic show, the writing was really tight and the performances were amazing. Absolutely blew me away.

This was an excellent example of when incredible writing is given to exceptional actors. We were blown away by the chemistry between the people onstage and how cleverly the story unfolded. An Exciting New is definitely one to keep an eye on!

Such a gorgeous play. A simple set clearly denoted location, leaving the audience free to enjoy the immense talent of both actors and the witty, dynamic script. A very unique concept cleverly played out.

A cleverly written show which enables two very talented actors to demonstrate their considerable talents. This show is a gem . You are taken on a ride which is at first apparently straight forward but soon enters a world which asks more questions than gives answers but makes you think . My taxi ride home was a little unnerving . An absurdly good show . Well done to all .

Very well acted and intriguing play which deserves to be seen widely.

Such an original and clever idea, the thoughtful acting was incredible and i left in awe at the talent. The writing and simple set design worked together seamlessly and i couldn’t recommend this show more, a perfect late night viewing!
Well done.

A genuine masterclass in naturalism—both Vita Hamilton and Yasmin Nachif of the two-woman cast deliver the deadpan humour of such a wonderfully subtle script that the absurdism of the whole play seems not at all pretentious nor haughty, but darkly comedic with a universal appeal. An entirely enjoyable 50 minutes—HIGHLY recommend!

We saw this show last night. Super riveting story that got emotional. Loved the plot. Loved the acting. Simply loved it.

I absolutely loved this show. The two actors were incredible. Their nuanced performances left me obsessed with this show, and made me want more!
Absolute credit to the writing too. So clever and well thought out! A MUST-SEE!!

We came to see backseat on Sunday the 4th of August and left in awe of the piece the team have created. The set is just two seats, the back of a taxi, where two supposed strangers sit, yet the girls effortless naturalistic acting totally transported me into the car with them. The script felt fresh and the comedy gags, which fell mostly towards the beginning, will make any young person laugh out loud. As the play progressed the tension built and I found myself transfixed, waiting for the next plot twist and a final resolution. This witty and intricate writing, combined with the talent of the two actors made the show an exciting, funny and breathtaking. I would highly recommend.
