Support the Fringe
Baroness Smith of Gilmorehill

Chair of the Board
The Fringe was born 64 years ago. When eight theatre groups decided
to perform in Edinburgh during the inaugural Edinburgh International
Festival, despite not having received an invitation, who could have
guessed what it would lead to?
Once it became clear that the Fringe was here to stay, the Festival
Fringe Society was formed to support the incredible collective of
performances that takes over Edinburgh in August. The policy that
remains at the core of our festival is that anyone can take part without
being subject to artistic vetting or selection. To this day we are proud
to include in our programme anyone with a story to tell and a venue
willing to host them.
If you would like to help ensure the future of the Fringe, you can
support the Festival Fringe Society by either giving a donation or
becoming a Friend of the Fringe.
We are entirely and enduringly grateful to all our supporters, the
Friends of the Fringe, our corporate sponsors, our public funders
and the many individuals who donate to the Society. This support
helps us to create, maintain and develop facilities and services for
the next generation of Fringe performers whilst ensuring that the
Fringe continues to nurture and discover new talent across the whole
spectrum of the arts. I hope that you discover something new this
August.
The Festival Fringe Societys mission is to advise, support

and encourage everyone taking part in the Fringe, to provide
comprehensive information and ticketing services for participants and
the public and to continue to raise the profile and promote the entire
Edinburgh Festival Fringe throughout the world. By doing this, we also
support the wider economy of Edinburgh and Scotland, generating well Baroness Smith of Gilmorehill

Visiting Edinburgh
Travelling to Edinburgh impacts on the environment and flying from
cities in the UK can often take as long as travelling by train when you
consider check-in times. For more information on travelling to and
around Edinburgh, including public transport and car sharing, please
visit www.edfringe.com/visitingedinburgh.
If you require transportation, the network of buses is excellent,

covering not just the city but also its outskirts. Most venues are never
far from a bus stop.
There are a variety of taxi ranks dotted around central Edinburgh.

Look for the unmistakable black cabs: an orange light means the

along you will be in good company. But remember the city is quite hilly!
Recycle
Virgin Money Street Events
Dont forget to recycle! The city has numerous bins for paper, plastic,
glass and cardboard around the city as well as in the majority of
venues. If you are visiting the High Street and the Mound please use
the bins provided.
Come along and witness some of the most extraordinary and

spectacular events at the festival, browse the arts and crafts market and
catch free previews of hundreds of Fringe shows performed daily on the
Virgin Money stages. World class street shows, buskers and entertainers
of every talent imaginable descend upon 12 performance spaces on
the High Street section of the Royal Mile, right on the doorstep of the
Fringe Shop and Box Office. Its all absolutely free and runs every day
of the Fringe from 11:00-21:00. You can also enjoy free street theatre
down at the Mound Precinct and see what tickets are available for the
current days shows at the Virgin Money Half Price Hut.
Schools Poster Competition
Thousands of school children across Scotland use their artistic skills

every year in the hope of having their design picked for the annual
Fringe poster. Our winning entry for 2011 was designed by Ailsa Purdie
of the High School of Dundee. To see the winning design and a shortlist
of the best of the years entries, check out the Fringe Schools Poster
Exhibition entry in the Events section of the programme. This year the
poster competition is sponsored by Virgin Money and our thanks go to
them and the Museum of Childhood for hosting the exhibition of the
winning posters.
The 2012 Edinburgh Festival Fringe

will run from 3 to 27 August

Tom Binns returns with an

incredible new show for
Ian D Montfort, a spookily
skilful, wonderfully observed
and hysterically funny spirit
medium who contacts the
dead with faintly inexplicable
clairvoyant revelations, leaving
the audience gasping.
Totally tubular! No cell

phones! No computers!
(Gasp!) Can you imagine
such a time existed? This
fun retrospective show is my
personal love letter about
coming of age, 80's style.

No hype, no tripe. Instead, an

authentic Fringe comedy show.
Usually great, sometimes
dodgy, always free. No
format, just jokes and other
funny things. Unplanned,
unscripted and probably
different every day. Something
definitely 'other'. www.

our obsession with money,
Ireland's meltdown and
conjures a plan to repay
85,000,000,000,000 to

such passion and complexity
that it approaches genius
(Scotsman).

Ready for a right royal

wronging? Then enter the
world of the double act
who dare to do the dirty!
It's comedy, it's dance and
its sordid synchronized
swimming. It's so wrong, it's
right.
Shakespeare is an unusual
passion for your average pest
controller, but Uncle Ivan is
not your average bloke. Expect
a roller coaster cocktail of
tragedy, pathos, rats, wigs,
comedy, hilarity ... and some

HamletZar:

Lung Dreams

Three Americans tell a wildly

genuine story of an immigrant
couple living in the USA in fear
of deportation. Song, dance,
with dialogue in Spanish,
Portuguese, French and
English. Innovative and fresh.
Get ready to feel.
HamletZar is a fascinating
project, devised as a result
of intensive international
theatre residencies. In this
new Danish/Iranian version,
Shakespeares Hamlet
involves a Middle Eastern Zar
ceremony, which is performed
on a boat carrying illegal
immigrants.
Armed with her last letter to

him, Flynch rampages through
the singing corridors of a
warped hotel looking for the
woman he loves. Lecoq trained
company dazzle in this brave,
poetic and humorous piece
where rooms become oceans.

You're my best friend. But

if zombies chase us, I'm

contains blood, death and
gore. And zombies.

Comedy lies in the comedian's

ability to reveal the comic
dimensions of others. Chris
Cresswell's latest show
explores the comedy of
Jacques Tati and the art of
the clown in an interactive
theatrical experience.
Manipulators is a 50 minute
show showcasing world-class
magic by two Australian
performers. Both performers
weave compelling short stories
amongst skilful illusions.

Philosophy in the Bedroom by

Marquis De Sade is a thought
provoking, vulgar pantomime
that, despite its 18th century
setting, is more punk rock than
it is Voltaire. You have been
warned!

(FringeReview.co.uk). 'Pip gets
under the skin of Dickens to
create a real man out of the
myth' (EdinburghGuide.com).
'In the hands of a master at

This show toys with the

concept that victims often
become bullies and struggles
with keeping shadows of the
past from darkening the light
of the future. Can Alice save
