Loose Cannon Theatre's 'Cherry' Review | What's On @ The Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2017

Nobody really likes talking about virginity, do they. Sure, people talk about what comes after almost all the time. The notion of sex is bombarded to us whenever we turn on the radio or switch on the television, even books aren't safe (thanks a bunch, E. L. James). 

Virginity, though, acts as this mystical shroud of shame that compels us to make crazy decisions or put ourselves in vulnerable situations just so we can say we've overcome it. It's a bit messed up, right? At least, that's what the Bristol based 'Loose Cannon Theatre' seems to have decided, as it brings one of western culture's most taboo topics to this year's Edinburgh Fringe Festival with Cherry, and I was lucky enough to catch a glimpse.

Is "Captain Marvel" Setting Up 'Secret Invasion' After "Avengers: Infinity War"?

At last weekend's San Diego Comic Con, Marvel Studios revealed concept art of Academy Award winning Brie Larson as Captain Marvel, the new superhero on the block. The costume looked amazing, serving a perfect balance between the established MCU style and the comics' colourful original design. Captain Marvel, though, doesn't just offer a well-dressed hero, but a refreshingly unique world for her to fly around in; in fact, it's the story details announced alongside Captain Marvel's concept art that hint that Carol Danvers's on-screen debut might just end up being the most important movie Marvel has ever made.
