Description

Bloody Elle returns to the Traverse for a strictly limited run after award-winning, sell-out TravFest22 performances. This heartwarming and belly-achingly funny story is stuffed full of those stomach-flipping, time-stopping moments, a touch, a glance, a kiss, that everyone will recognise. Set to an original live score that builds loops and layers of sound to make you feel like there is a ten-piece band on stage, audiences are transported to a sweaty, packed-out gig in the back of a pub or a 10,000-seat arena. Fringe First Award winner, 2022. ‘Blisteringly magnificent’ ***** (TheReviewsHub.com). Original run supported by Rebel Productions

Bloody Elle is a joy from the start. The music is excellent, and the story is wonderfully told.

A magnificent performance that literally invites everyone in the theatre to embrace this intimate and sensitive story. I just didn’t want the 90 minutes to end.
