Laldie Theatre Three Bed No Livingroom was an absolute joy to go to. Such a relevant topic but written and acted with a kind gentleness. I was engrossed from beginning to end with all the characters. The show was so well written it made me feel like I was in the flat with them. But the joy at the end when Beth finally gets together with Cynthia I had to stop myself shouting out hurrah at the end ha ha. The show just naturally flowed with a sense of realness and I just can't wait to see what happens next. Well done everyone you were all fantastic. What's next for Laldie Theatre I wonder. Thank you.

A wonderfully sweet, tender show that kept me smiling long after I left the theatre. The cast were brilliant, the soundtrack was banger after banger and the story was a beautiful way to gain insight into queer friendships and journeys in early adulthood. Wonderfully written and tied together by Ruby, I can’t wait to see it again!

A funny, light hearted yet poignant story about queer friendships. The dialogue flowed so well and was natural and very relatable, it felt like watching real genuine conversations and friend dynamics. Funny at the right moments and showed different queer dynamics and personalities. A great show all in all!! Could definitely see it on a much bigger scale.

I The L Worded this show. A fantastic ensemble with a dynamic so natural you'll be asking if you can move in to this crowded apartment. 3 Beds is a touching story of celebrating queer friendship, exploring queer romance, and displaying (dare I say it) queer joy. The entire company should be very Pride of themselves.

5/5⭐️ Loved the show so much! The references about places around Edinburgh were fun and the acting was phenomenal!! The writing of the show was done to perfection, worked so well as a comedy but still had those emotional and more serious moments which added another layer onto the play! I could see this becoming a tv show! Well done to everyone involved!

A beautiful exploration of friendship,relationships and self discovery within the queer community. Ruby's writing is witty and heartwarming, shes produced an uplifting and relatable script for everyone, even those who are not in the queer community themselves. The acting was stunning, the cast is made up of 5 up and coming actors who portrayed their characters incredibly, a stand out was Yasmin Parekh, who’s realism made me want her character Ezra as my best friend too. I would HIGHLY recommend going to see this show.

The set and props were excellent. The plot was actually very true to live and it’s relatable to us queer uni students.

Such a lovely, beautiful, honest and funny show about queer uni living. It’s so heartfelt but its comedic elements really make this stand out from the rest

A window into queer life that all of us can relate to no matter the age (we really don’t have many unique experiences!) The honest writing and bubbling chemistry between the actors truly captures the treasures and tribulations of queer friendships and dating. Definitely make sure to catch this one!

A heartwarming and healing exploration of young queer joy. Intertwined with exceptional witty writing and constant giggles! The character chemistry was electric and ran deep throughout the performance. Further, the cosy set and choice use of lighting accompanied each moment of joy and sentiment. Each component created a talented mosaic, one not to miss at this years fringe!

Very funny, tender and a delight to watch. So nice to see something not cynical in today's sarcastic and mean world.

I'm not this show's target demographic, by quite a few decades, but I thought it was absolutely brilliant. Really great writing, very skillful mix of funny, tender and authentic. Lovely local details, and a fantastic capture of friendship, fun, hopes and dreams, right now. The script was superb, but so were the cast. The costumes, props and staging were very very good too.

Great little show. The perfect mixture of drama, laughs and lightness, just what you need from a coming of age story. If you’re about on the Royal Mile give these guys your support!

First show I've seen at the Fringe this year and it was a great start! Snappy, funny writing. Intentionally awkward moments - something I really love about live theatre, using the already present tension within the theatre space to feed those moments, heighten emotions to make me care about the characters and their story. Gorgeous cast who work brilliantly together and manage to create many different dynamics within the short time they have together. Bravo
