Description

HoneyBEE is a festival-driven show with a banging soundtrack. This marathon feat of gig theatre tells the story of Kate, as she flits and stumbles through her 20s fuelled on highs and hedonism. With a heady mix of music, stand-up and spoken word, Kate's story represents a generation's search for purpose and the need to dance in the face of adversity. It's Fleabag meets Kae Tempest, with a dash of dirty bass. HoneyBEE, Dillon-Reams's debut play, returns to Edinburgh after winning The Scotsman Best Newcomer Award and the Three Weeks Editor's Award at Edinburgh Fringe 2019.

Elle Dillon-Reams is a world-class talent. Her HoneyBEE is a superlatively engaging work of immense depth and empathy. Dillon-Reams performance is electrifying. This is THE standout show of this year’s Fringe.

This is a really good show. The advert describes it as 'festival-driven', but really it's the quality of Ellie's poetry and performance that drives the show along.

You are Kenough.

Utterly captivating. A rollercoaster of a show with highs and lows, utterly relatable, beautiful story telling, spoken word, physicality and raw tenderness. Absolutely loved it

What a rollercoaster of a show. Join Elle on her non-stop party adventure getting high on life. With the natural twists of life, blindsiding her with reality. Elle will strip you down and build you back up. She is simply beautiful. A must see performer.
