Wonderful story telling. Personal, funny, emotional, thought provoking and relatable. Loved this.

We laughed, we cried, we laughed some more. Rob Carlton is a masterful storyteller. I'm so glad we saw this!

heartwarming and hilarious at the same time!

What a wonderful show. Amazing stories, told from the heart with such vigour & wonderful acting. So enjoyable.

Brilliant! Actor Rob Carlton brings 4 very different but interlinked stories to life. I laughed, shed a little tear & then cackled some more. Don't miss this gem in the beautiful 97 year old Spiegel Zelt at The Garden.

Captivating evening of storytelling!

Wonderful stories that make you laugh and cry. Top notch.

Wonderful Story telling with humour and Pathos.

Willing Participant deftly weaves laugh-out-loud comedy with thoughtful and reflective stories to great effect. The seamless transition between humour and tenderness in Carlton's performance leaves you hanging on every word, blindly guessing where his escapades will take him next. His show is that rare Fringe gem, a perfect blend of genres and styles while also serving as a compassionate and timely reminder to relish in the company of loved ones while you still can.

Unique performance and thoroughly enjoyed. An intimate performance at the Holden Street theatre, where he shared 4 personal stories, so it was almost like he was just talking to you. His story telling skills made the stories come to life, with wisdom, passion and some humour along the way. The real life stories shared some poignant messaging. Would highly recommend!

Rob Carlton is entirely deserving of his five star reviews for Willing Participant. A quartet of four personal, emotional and hilarious stories. At Holden Street through the next week of Fringe.

Storytelling at its best. Great show. Funny and poignant. Intimate venue. Don’t miss it.
