The Mort Hoose

With almost a full house sitting, this penultimate performance hit the spot.

With cast performances keeping pace with sharp writing The Mort Hoose achieved - I feel - what it set out to. Perhaps some references hit harder for a Fifer in the audience, there were plenty of moments of comedy that some may not have dared to laugh out loud at, and you can’t beat that!!

Ended up feeling like an accomplice to the comedic awkwardness. And let’s remember the players are all at the start of their journey, egged on by the excellent Walkers! Good effort, I really enjoyed that

With a group of confident young actors with great chemistry "The Mort Hoose" realistically portrays the the uneasy social dynamics of friends reuniting in adulthood, at the turn of society from offline to online.

A talented cast with a strong script really creates an impact from the outset with dark jokes that turn on their head into sharp commentaries on the selfishness and self-preservation that define the characters.

The cast display hilarious comedic timing and manage to portray underlying themes of morality and mortality excellently. All whilst dealing with difficult subject matter and storylines of homophobia, classism, and Scottish small town life.

The dialogue, artfully written, is brought to life by the outstanding ensemble from the FSCA, making "The Mort Hoose" a dark comedy that is not to be missed.

The FCSA Fringe Society come in swinging with this show. The small, yet powerful, cast, consisting of six actors, provide unique, humorous insight. All of which is set within a dingy, defunct Morthouse.

Consisting of Fife College 1st year students, this performance plays to deep strengths. Bringing a unique ability to keep a humorous, yet dark, tone throughout the play.

The dynamic between different characters, the writer versus the jokester, the footballer turned fancy-dress priest, all revolving around five people trying to figure out just what to do with the dead body hidden under the table. This young cast provide a comedic and energetic look to a morbid situation.

Excellently written and directed, and excellently performed. It's refreshing to see such strong and young Fife talent strut their stuff and make this space work for them. I can't wait to see what they do next.

A great piece of new writing, full of Fife reference's. The Fife College students do a wonderful job at bringing this piece to life and it’s so lovely to see the chemistry between the young company on stage!

I saw the show on opening day today and it was amazing! I didn't know what to expect, laughed out loud a lot, the show it's so well written and well acted. Just to be clear it's not a comedy, maybe it could be classed as dark comedy? It's just a really good show and if you're unsure what to go and see, this is definitely worth it!
