If you’re looking for a cheeky musical stop to begin your night at the Fringe, then head to the Gothic room in the Three Sisters for the most bizarre Ukulele banter in town.Tricity Vogue invites the punters and the performers into all sorts of fun for the evening, plucking five judges out of the crowd and honouring them with their own fabulous Ukulele for the show. Sing-alongs and the Uke of Edinburgh competition follow, with surprises round every corner as each act graces the stage.Vogue is unyielding in her enthusiasm, but her cabaret would benefit from more eccentric inserts in the bill, with more sing-a-longs to fill in between the acts. There is great opportunity for the show to be put on on a larger scale, through a wider range of songs to sing-along or play-along to. Unfortunately the allocated 50 minutes doesn’t allow the hostess to step outside of her schedule. This show deserves a decent hour and a half to convert more people to the world of Ukulele.A great little gig to get your friends together to try out your chord skills on this trendy instrument. There are also kazoos for everyone, at a price though - this is the Free Fringe we’re talking about here. Whether your a follower of the Uke or an idle passer-by who hasn’t experienced the power of its twang, then get yourself to the cabaret and Tricity Vogue will do the rest.
