Welcome to our 2016 Festival Fringe
W
E are very proud to once
again present a rich and
balanced programme for
all to enjoy. With some 330 shows
over 23 days we present the largest
new writing programme at the
festival and offer a hugely diverse
array of live performance including
the very best of theatre, musical
theatre, music, children’s, dance,
physical theatre, comedy, improv,
sketch, cabaret and spoken word.
While theSpaceUK continues
to evolve and innovate with each
successive year, it does not forget
its original commitment to the
Spirit of the Fringe as a platform
for all. This very much includes
embracing not only the established,
professional and well-funded shows
but also those that are maybe
coming to Edinburgh for the first
time or due to various restraints
can perhaps only perform for
a short run.
Our relationships with many
returning universities and schools
continues to flourish and we
welcome all those independent
performers bringing shows for the
first time. Our festival is a fantastic
platform for all to present their
work and to develop their art, it’s a
unique environment to gain more
experience, to meet like minded
people, to encourage and to learn.
With this diversity, there has
developed a strong reputation for
producing a high calibre of awardwinning work that audiences from
across the globe are eager to see.
We look forward to welcoming
you and that you enjoy seeing the
wide range of shows in our theatres
this August. Enjoy our venues and
your festival.

vaguely aware of the racial strife
raging outside his door. That comfort
is shattered forever when his son

songs about love. Singing songs about
not being loved. Singing songs that
have absolutely nothing to do with
love but will give you the best eargasm
of your life.

a company that showed a defined
passion to produce, direct and
perform over and above the level of
creativity even the Edinburgh Fringe
can expect.
Our winning company for 2015
was ‘Naughty Corner’ with their show
‘Not the Horse’. Winners of the NSDF
award in 2014 this young company
embrace the very spirit of festival and
its with great pleasure we present their
new show ‘Dirty Glitter’ at the 2016
Festival. Here’s their story so far:
“Our first fringe was in 2014,
fresh graduates from Edge Hill near
Liverpool. We brought a piece
of new writing called ‘The Bastard
Queen’ we performed for just one
week and won the NSDF Award
- Not bad eh!
“We transferred to London as
part of the award and came back
to the fringe in 2015 with another
highly acclaimed new writing ‘Not
the Horse’.....we won the ‘new writing
- show your passion’ funding award
offered by theSpaceUK and are now
bringing our third new writing ‘ Dirty
Glitter’ to the 2016 festival.
“The fringe is a special place,
without Edinburgh we certainly
wouldn’t be where we are today, two
strong awards, very good reviews and a
north west tour, company residency in
Liverpool, two years on and our journey
continues, it’s very exciting.
“We’re particularly chuffed to
have been recognised and now to be
working with not only producers of
the largest new writing programme in
Edinburgh but also one of the festivals
most established venues.“
On a general level the fringe is just
an amazing place for young artistes,
it offers something for all, whatever
background, age, lifestyle, it offers a
platform to showcase your work without
prejudice or snobbery. The atmosphere
throughout the city in August is
something else and the passion
for live performance is unreal. As a
performer, director, producer, techie,
venue staff or an audience member
it doesn’t matter, you can talk to
people in the street, in a bar, after a
show, everyone has a mutual feeling
of respect, support and warmth for
each other.
We very much look forward to
presenting our work once again in this
fabulous city, we hope you come and
see our show.”
