Established in 1947 as an alternative to the Edinburgh International Festival (EIF), the
Edinburgh Festival Fringe takes place in Scotland every August. It joins EIF as the world's largest performance arts festival and is on the bucket list of just about every music theatre performer and/or theater goer.
In 2019, we visited the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, it spanned 25 days and featured more than 59,600 performances of 3,841 different shows in 322 venues. The atmosphere is one of comradery and artistry and over the year's the Fringe Society has embraced technology innovations with midnight augmented reality tours and a state of the art website.
It's no wonder why we might get excited to hear news that Eigg the Musical, a Denver based music theater show, will be participating in this year's festivities. They'll be performing a Scottish inspired work on the fascinating stories of Eigg, a small island in the inner Hebrides. The show is on the Fringe website and tickets are available for the lucky souls traveling to Scotland this Summer.
