Fringe 2009

Post by Bob Jefferson » 08 Aug 2009, 09:42

What have you seen? What do you plan to see? What do you recommend?

We are at the Mela on Sunday. We've got tickets for Dylan Moran and a dance thing called Raw. Also going to the Book Festival, the Foodie Festival and plan to see a few of the many free shows on offer this year and generally take in the atmos.

If you plan to go to the foodie event, the code for 2 for the price of 1 tickets is foodie241

Clanger 1 was been going to a few free shows.
We were at Dylan Moran last night which I really enjoyed.
Will wait and see if anything else comes up

We saw a great show last night. It's an aerial dance thing called Raw.
Fidget Feet is a pioneering performance company that stretches the boundaries between several art forms. Combining spectacular aerial skills with contemporary circus, Fidget Feet create theatre fused with aerial dance, music and video art.
If that sounds like your sort of thing, you might want to take a look at their website:

Get their early for pre-show drinks and artistic pole-dancing!

Went to see Philip somebody last night. Sort of card tricky, illusionisty type person. Pretty good but a bit too much talking and not enough doing for me.
Enough of your nonsense - get back to the Play Pen!

Moscow State Circus was great - had sore hands from clapping so much.
