Do Better: A Dramagedy

Edinburgh 2026

'Side-splittingly humorous, completely confounding, and absolutely heart-rending' (Audience Review). Do Better is a one-person comedic drama with magic (a Dramagedy) that explores how we navigate life after unwavering grief. After experiencing unimaginable loss at 10 years old, the only way forward was to laugh through the pain and do a card trick. In essence, this is how we Do Better. Written and performed by Izzy Salant, directed by Peyton Ashby, produced by SpotCorp Events.
