Edinburgh Fringe features new solo shows by Sophie Sandor and Sophie Garrad

The 2026 Edinburgh Festival Fringe features new solo performances from Sophie Sandor and Sophie Garrad.

In ‘Giro Baby’, Sophie Sandor presents a one-woman show detailing a young woman’s upbringing in Glasgow. The narrative uses 1990s nostalgia to trace the protagonist’s journey from adolescence through university and into a political career in Westminster.

Sophie Garrad performs ‘A Period Drama’ at the Ace Dome. Her comedy hour addresses serious medical topics, including endometriosis, pregnancy loss, and fertility challenges. The show utilizes a high-status comedic persona to navigate personal trauma and critique inconsistencies in women’s healthcare.
