We'll Have Nun of It

The actor-musicians are fabulously talented;they have some of the best voices at the fringe! They also play so many different instruments. Brilliant songs, gorgeous acting, Unfortunately I was very frustrated at not being to make out the words of the songs

One of the greatest productions I have ever seen, not just at Fringe! I'd been looking forward to seeing the show for a while as it sounded like something I'd love and it surpassed my expectations. The actor-musicians are unbelievably talented being able to play so many different instruments, and have some of the best voices at the festival this year. Brilliant songs, gorgeous acting and creative direction too. I hope We'll Have Nun of It goes on to more runs, would be absolutely at home on the West End. Easy 5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Found this really moving. Harmonies gave me goosebumps. Incredible talent on show. Only issue for us was the sound - it was nigh on impossible to make out the words being sung due to the volume of the music. Maybe live captioning would be the answer.
It says something though that I enjoyed it immensely - the musicality, acting, harmonies, the synergy between the actors all phenomenal, if I only I could follow the full narrative as well. I would happily watch this again to see if I could pick up more.

Lovely show showcasing fabulous musical talent and exuberance and a heartwarming story. Definitely a must-see show this year and we look forward to a touring version in the future. 5* For sure.

23. 5 stars - The actor musicians were AMAZING, the music and the talent and the joy and the heart of it all. Reminded me of spring awakening in its darker moments. It was all so passionate and sensitive. You could see the pure joy in the performers as they switched mellifluously between instruments and scenes. Even when they weren’t singing or playing you could see the performers beaming at their peers! The direction and writing were fantastic, you were with the characters the whole way through- felt their struggles and triumphs. There was a gorgeous queer love story that felt so natural and fit uniquely and subversively in the convent school setting. They got a very well deserved standing ovation. This musical is a gem of the fringe and I am sure is going to go far! So excited to see what these immensely talented people do in the future.

Really enjoyed this show, with spirited performances both vocally and in their acting, the characters move from engaging to funny to sad. Wonderful stuff.

With beautiful voices the small cast of five also proved to be accomplished instrumentalists as they took the audience on a journey through the highs and lows of the life of convent schoolgirls in the 1960’s. A hugely enjoyable production with a mix of humour and sensitive performances regarding issues affecting the adolescent characters portrayed.

Just loved this! Hugely talented cast, beautiful voices and instrumentals. Touching individual stories and a glimpse into life in a Covent in the ‘60’s. Highly recommend

Best surprise of the Fringe. No idea what such an amazing group of singers, musicians & songwriters are doing in such a modest venue... but a must see, 5 stars!

A must-see performance. Easily the best thing I’ve seen this year (and quite possibly any year). Beautifully written songs, breathtaking performances by a wonderful cast of inspiring young people.

actors can sing and play instruments. small performing area. sound levels far too high. Did not enjoy the story.

Amazing show. Great acting, stunning voices and harmonies and a story that fit well within the hour with enough depth to both the individual characters and their collective experience. STRONGLY recommended to go see!!!

The story and music is just stunning. Beautifully crafted, and I was hooked throughout.

Brilliant performances from this multi talented young cast. Amazing voices and great performances on their instruments. Do not miss it.

Incredibly impressed by the sheer talent of this cast! So brilliant and moving to hear different Irish perspectives/stories/voices. A beautiful gem of a show

A fabulous show. Beautifully written by Finola Southgate and performed with so much energy and joy. Multi skilled cast with a great future ahead of them. Original music full of charm, emotion and story. Loved it.

Our favourite show of the fringe, the performers are so talented - loved it!

A brilliant show! Fantastic live music beautifully performed telling the story of 5 friends at their repressive Catholic boarding school in the 1960’s, The cast play all the instruments throughout the show which is incredible. Funny, poignant and totally uplifting.
