A Folk-Pop Musical Premiere

SONG SOCIETY

“Like Pixar's Inside Out, it reminds us that our identities are shaped by moments and memories – both the silly and profound.”

“A charming and intimate one-woman musical which looks at memories, our connections to ourselves and our past.

-The Scotsman

“ If Total Recall, Eternal Sunshine, and Upload had a theatrical baby, scored by a mellowed-out Chappell Roan...

There’s something quietly original here — and it feels like a show with legs.”

EDINBURGH FRINGE

From 30 JULY to 25 AUGUST

1.15 PM at UNDERBELLY, Bristo Square

She turns stories into song—until one turns on her.

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?

LIKE “ETERNAL SUNSHINE” GOT STUCK INSIDE MTV UNPLUGGED.
