Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2015 REVIEW – How to Keep an Alien ****

Forget notions of spaceships and little green men this is a true life story of love overcoming distance and red tape.

The ’Alien’ is Kate from Queensland and Sonia Kelly falls in love with her. This is a perfectly joyous piece of theatre, with loads of laugh. It is a story that captures today.

As we encourage our young people to travel the world there is every chance they might fall in love with an ’Alien’ just like Kate. Sonia overcomes her fears and doubts to fight to stay with Kate.

She is ably assisted by Jason on stage who at one point gives a hilarious rendition of Bright Eyes.

Well worth a visit to the Traverse.
