PROGRAMME

BUBBLE SCHMEISIS

(REMIXED)

WHEN: DAILY FROM 6-31 AUGUST (EXCEPT 18, 25)

TIME: 16:30

WHERE: SAUNA THEATRE @ SUMMERHALL

Nick Cassenbaum (Fringe First Winning REVENGE: After the Levoyah) returns to Summerhall with his sell out Fringe and international hit… but this time in a sauna! A new promenade version conjures the warmth of Canning Town Schvitz in the UK’s first purpose-built sauna theatre as Nick takes you on a journey to find the place he belongs. Amidst the steam, live klezmer and ritual, will he find what he is looking for? Bubble Schmeisis is full of intimate and personal stories about identity, home and getting schmeised (washed) by old men. Sure to be a hot ticket.

Praise for Bubble Schmeisis

"It’s by far the funniest thing I have seen in Edinburgh so far, and yet as you’re howling away at another anecdote Bubble Schmeisis is actually saying more about identity and different humans in shared city spaces than many shows that on the outside look Serious with stern faces and capital letters."

- Exeunt

"Personal, gently probing exploration of British Jewish identity."

- ★★★★ The Stage 

"Cassenbaum gently prods and questions these well-worn images of his culture to question what it means to be a British Jew today."

- ★★★★ The List
