Don’t miss Leila Navabi’s new punk musical comedy show Relay in exclusive previews at the Sherman before they head to the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
Writer and multi-disciplinary rebel Leila Navabi returns to the Fringe with Relay, a story about choosing family and overcoming the odds. With sharp wit and tender sincerity, Leila dives into the true story of making a baby at home with her partner, a best mate as the sperm donor, and, naturally, his boyfriend cheering from the sidelines. Featuring six brand new original songs, Navabi unpacks love, ambition, and the chaos of building a family on their own terms. Equal parts absurd and profound, Relay is proof that family is not just what you make it, but how. Leila has provided tour support for Jessica Fostekew, Laura Smyth and Nish Kumar.
Leila Navabi is Sherman Theatre’s recipient of the Pleasance Edinburgh National Partnership scheme for 2025.
