2016 Edinburgh Fringe
How To Win Against History
How to Win Against History: A fierce and fabulous costume drama musical about Henry Cyril Paget, the 5th Marquis of Anglesey. Born in 1875, poised to inherit the Empire, he instead burned brightly, briefly and transvestitely; blowing his family's godlike wealth putting on diamond-studded plays starring him (to which nobody came). When he died, his family burnt every record of his life, and carried on as though he'd never been. A hilarious, ripped up new extravaganza by Seiriol Davies (Caroline Horton & Co's Mess) about being too weird for the world.

Young companies: don't be afraid of ambition
So the Edinburgh fringe is almost over for another year. Monday is the last day of the festival but many companies have already packed up and left. Some will be going home with accolades, possibly awards, and maybe even a transfer for their show.

Lucy Evans, Fresh Air, 5th August 2016Fringe: our pick of the bunch
Little ripples. That's how it starts. Little ripples getting bigger. And then suddenly you're eye to eye with a dinosaur. The Edinburgh Fringe is the T-Rex of arts festivals and it has a way of creeping up on you. For ages it's a faint shape on the horizon, reassuringly far away, and then it pounces.
