Any Objections?
***Edinburgh Fringe 2025 Sell Out Show***
Tired of the harps demure, classical reputation, Scarlett Smith’s debut solo show Any Objections? is a surreal quest to prove this instrument belongs far beyond the orchestra pit. Blending live looping covers of popular songs, self-produced indie-pop jingles and fast paced punch lines, the show is a playful celebration of creativity and harp innovation.
“Smith creates a world of inclusivity and creativity like no other.”
5 Star – Theatre in Brighton
“Imagine if KT Tunstall and Bo Burnham had a baby, that would describe Scarlett Smith.”
4½ Star – Tonylovesthefringe
“Expect to find a smile transfixed to your face for the full hour.”
Broadway Baby
“Fizzes with energy.”
Bristol 24/7
“Impressive and entertaining.”
