Fringe Review at The Pleasance

The Pleasance is still rooted primarily at the Courtyard and the Dome. These are two very different venues. The Courtyard is just that - a courtyard, with outdoor bars and catering (an indoor bar as well) and an often crowded, outdoor festival feel.

Edinburgh preview: Everyone's A Winner

I know that Edinburgh should be about looking forward rather than looking back, but 2014 may be the year that more previous Edinburgh Comedy Award winners are appearing at the Festival than ever before. Of course, there are more Edinburgh Comedy Award winners than ever before, but there does seem to be a plethora of them returning. Is it to cash in on their fame? Is it to show the young whippersnappers how it's done? Is it just sentiment and trying to recapture the spirit they had when it all began? Is it all that and more? Who knows, but here are some famous names to look out for.
