Description
A contemporary confessional for the modern sinner. A space to listen and be heard, away from the digital divide. Without Sin is an immersive experience for an audience of two, created by an award-winning team of designers and theatre-makers. Enter the box with a friend, partner, relative or – better yet – a stranger, and you will be guided into conversation by light, sound, and a question. Reclaiming the penitential rite as a non-judgmental exercise in reflection and healing, Without Sin invites you to consider our relationships with one another and the places that cultivate connection between us.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.

Without Sin was my favorite show at Fringe. Such a gentle and kind experience. I was paired with a stranger and I hope my words were half as comforting as theirs. Very well designed.

My daughter and I loved sharing this two-person immersive experience, which was as satisfying to do together as we had hoped. It sounded like it might be a bit judgmental but it's actually the exact opposite; warm and life-affirming. Our predecessors were strangers to one another; the woman had enjoyed it, the man not so much. There's not much to it. It's really just a game you could play at home but the way it's set up, with you seated in adjoining booths with headphones and a microphone, gently lifts it to another level. Definitely recommended.

Sin gives us a break from the busy life, allowing us to stop time. It was recharging to listen and speak about topics that make us humans, in a very safe environment. I loved the experience, it was a shame it only lasted 20 minutes.

I didn't plan to go but am so glad I was given the opportunity. A gently crafted experience that left me feeling positive about humanity. Which if I'm honest isn't always the case in Edinburgh in August.
