My third helping of the Bite-Size guys this Fringe, and just as enjoyable as Menu 2 and Menu 3. There were six playlets this time covering a wide range of subjects and issues.
Broken stood out as the most overtly serious piece, and it was impressive to watch an atmosphere of suspicion and confusion with such a short work. All You'll Ever Want delivered a satire on the data acquisition and profiling techniques big companies use to market to us as individuals, and the way in which consumers are manipulated and controlled. The final pair, Surprise and Ten Reasons Why Hamlet Was Gay are both hilarious, but with surprising depth to the latter.
It's definitely been worthwhile making time to see all three offerings.
