Shows like Best in Class cannot be celebrated enough. Growing up working class just forty minutes away from Scotland’s capital is enough to feel worlds apart; change needs to happen to address the social imbalance at arts festivals like the Fringe and open it up to fresh audiences and performers worldwide. Best in Class is wonderfully funny and a true celebration of working-class comedy in the UK and seeks to do just that.

EDINBURGH 2023: Review: MARI CRAWFORD: BIPOLAR BADASS, Paradise In The Vault
by L Gourley - Aug 14, 2023
The performance has a short run-time but it’s powerful, and something Crawford should be incredibly proud of. It’s educational but also uplifting to hear her journey go from her lowest points to a point of not only self-acceptance but one of pride. Those with similar experiences will undoubtedly feel a sense of connection with this show, and those who don’t will learn something important from it.
