Description
Meet Ryan. Nineteen (but young for his age). School drop-out (but smart). Turkey-sandwich enthusiast (365 days a year). Absolute stunner (no addendum). He's new in town, and all he wants to do is check out. The hard part is coming up with an exit plan. When the one person he thought he could rely on ups and leaves, Ryan finds himself adrift in a city he still hasn’t learned to like, looking for direction. Six months to kill, no money, no rules… surely this is the worst possible time to be alone?Please note that while all media gallery content is provided by verified members of the event, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society does not review or approve this content before it is posted.

Well performed show. Covered some difficult subjects very well. Thought provoking

One of the best shows I saw this year. Well written and great acting. The show is effectively an hour long monologue but manages to keep the audience engaged throughout.

Well written one man play. Heavy on descriptive gay sex, but apart from that, the skill of the actor and his deft movements on a minimalistic stage overcomes the gritty material. You become immersed in the issues around this young man’s dilemma. Definitely one to see.

Such a brilliant, gritty, hilarious show. Throughly enjoyed from start to finish.

Yes, it's 10 AM, but grab a cup of coffee and make your way to see this show! See Ryan deal with being new and on his own in London while also trying to figure out who he is and what he wants. Engagingly performed, expertly crafted. Worth your time.

This was a tiny bit raw for first thing on a Sunday morning at 10:05 but once you get in to the swing of it you forget what’s going on and become entangled in Ryan’s adventure. Beautifully expressed and delivered. You can follow Ryan’s foot steps and “taste”those turkey sandwiches.
