  3. On the topic of Edinburgh, I saw another excellent play: When Billy Met Alasdair - a one-man show inspired by a photograph of Billy Connolly at the book launch of Lanark, by Alasdair Gray, in 1981.

    Alan Bissett is very good in both roles, and the play has an enjoyable nod to Lanark in its structure, and is both a touching biography and a musing on art and perseverance.

    Again, only on for 3 more days. Recommended!

  4. Very cool to see posters for my sister's (excellent) show all around Edinburgh. Obviously I'm biased, but it's been getting good reviews, including a 4 star one from The Times.

    It's on until the 24th, so only 3 more days. 13:50 at ZOO Southside.

    Do go and see it if you have the chance!

  9. Scottish Ballet tonight. Beautiful dancing, an impressionistic story - Mary Queen of Scots (though I had a couple of difficulties with the narrative). An an excellent score, Nyman-esque at times, forebodingly percussive at other. I loved it.

    A very good show. Mary Queen of Scots is touring in the autumn, and I've half a mind to go again.

  10. Just back from tonight's show.

    I thought Orpheus & Euridyce was one of the best things I've ever seen.

    If I weren't going to the ballet tomorrow, I'd get a ticket to see it again!

    The Guardian gave it five stars (out of five). It deserves six!

  14. ‘Stupider than everyone else’: one comic’s semi-naked bid to perform dozens of Penguin novels

    In a riotous show, Garry Starr dons a tailcoat, flippers and little else to re-enact a bookshelf full of classics. Would you help him bring The Jungle Book to life? Comedy smash-hits come…

  19. Went to see "All the Fraudulent Horsegirls" at #EdinburghFringe today and absolutely loved it - delightfully silly, beautifully acted, creatively staged. I'm pretty sure that's going to be my top recommendation for anyone at the festival 👌🐎✨
    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

  20. Thoughts go out to all the Edinburgh kids (and teachers!) who have to return to school today while, for instance, the world’s largest arts festival continues around them.

    So many kids still out and enjoying it, but not so much the locals, now.

  21. I'm going to see this next week. And the film a couple of days later. The play because I thought I really ought to see some theatre in the Festival and I've always been impressed by Vicky Featherstone; the film because I was invited long after I had tickets for the play. It'll be interesting to compare the two!

  22. "Johannesson, along with fellow authors Mikaela Loach and Mohamed Tonsy, disrupted Loach’s Saturday event as they called on the festival to drop its main sponsor, #BaillieGifford, after revelations that it has billions invested in #FossilFuels, prompting the climate activist #GretaThunberg to cancel her own #BookFestival appearance.

    There was no demand for refunds as the audience of 180 exited the auditorium chanting in unison."
