Google Higgledy Piggledy ProductionsAbout the show
PALS is a female-led, female-produced Scottish adventure-comedy play from Higgledy Piggledy Productions, running 70 minutes at Doonstairs during the Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2025. The show follows four crude, chaotic but completely normal friends — the Perfectly Average Lassies of Scotland — as they set off on a camping trek in the west of Scotland. Escaping their everyday lives, they aim for a riotous time while narrowly avoiding several mental breakdowns. The show premiered at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2024 and is suitable for ages 14 and over. Content warnings include distressing themes, scenes of a sexual nature, violence, and strong language.
Why see this show?
A raucous, warmly observed comedy about female friendship and the great Scottish outdoors — four women out of their depths in more ways than one, on a trek that goes gloriously sideways.
