A Folk-Pop Musical Premiere
SONG SOCIETY
She turns stories into song—until one turns on her.

EDINBURGH FRINGE |JUL 30-AUG 25| UNDERBELLY
After a standout 2024 Fringe debut and a critically acclaimed 2023 Off-Broadway run at Soho Playhouse, award-winning writer and performer Florencia Iriondo returns to Underbelly with Song Society, an intimate, one-person folk-pop musical about memory, home, family folklore, and the stories that make us whole.
In the offbeat Song Society, the Songkeeper files away the memories we can’t shake. But when one keeps returning—untagged, unsorted, and strangely catchy—she asks: what if the real trick isn’t forgetting with ease, but remembering on purpose?
