Description
Max and Stevie are just two wee guys trying to survive in an ordinary Scottish secondary school. But to survive, sometimes you need to hide. And there's no hiding when you're a VL. VL = Virgin Lips. It means you've never kissed a lassie, or a laddie. The longer you stay a VL, the more of a VL you become. The producers of Fleabag bring you another riotous comedy from the Fringe First Award-winning writers of Square Go, Kieran Hurley and Gary McNair, about young boys trying to navigate romance in the hormonal pressure cooker of a small-town school.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.

Hilarious. Brought back a lot of memories of being 16. Lovely to be in the round. Lots of laughs and some touching moments too. Reminder that 16 year olds’ worlds can be categorised by things that seem trivial to us when we’re older, but we mustn't dismiss them

My highlight of the fringe this year. Hilarious, beautiful writing and wonderful characters I want to see hours more of. All theatre should be like this!

If you see one thing at this years fringe then this is it. An evening with Stevie and Max will be the funniest and most heartwarming evening you will have this year. Laughed throughout and still laughing now when I'm back at work. These 2 will take you back to school and make you remember how silly it all was back then when all you cared about was your first Kiss!

As a VL myself, it reminded me of my angsty teenage years - it was pure entertainment! Brilliant fast-paced acting, luminous clothing, and wonderfully cringey poetry! Brush up on your Glaswegian accent before watching.

What can I say. Quite the best thing I’ve seen at the Fringe this year. Hugely fast pace. Brilliant writing with insight into the minds of young lads and acting brilliant too. Don’t miss.
