70th Anniversary Programme Covers


Scotlands schoolchildren were invited to design the cover of
the 70th anniversary Fringe Programme. One winner was
selected from each of the three age categories.
Primary 1 Primary 3

Helen Willder, age 6,


George Watsons College,
Edinburgh.
Helens artwork oozes fun and captures the surprising and sometimes
wacky nature of the Fringe. The judges thought Helens design
represented the Fringe where extraordinary and, at times, seemingly
impossible ideas are brought to life.
Primary 4 Primary 7

Tom Dolby, age 8,


St Marys School Melrose,
Scottish Borders.
The Edinburgh Festival Fringe is the worlds greatest platform for creative
freedom and Toms design screams passion, creativity and colour. The
judges thought this design captured the energy that explodes across
Edinburgh in August.

Orla Henaghen, age 13,


Senior 1 Senior 6

St Peter the Apostle High School,


Greater Glasgow and Clyde.
Orlas design gives a high five to everyone who picks up a programme.
The 70th anniversary gives cause to celebrate and the judges thought
her design shouted hold on tight, enjoy the ride and welcome to the

It aLl begAN IN
Edinburgh in 1947.
The Fringe story began in 1947 when eight groups,
six Scottish and two English, arrived in Edinburgh
hoping to perform at the newly formed Edinburgh
International Festival but were refused entry to
the programme. Rather than being discouraged
from performing, they went ahead and performed
anyway. The following year, even more performers
turned up, prompting playwright Robert Kemp to
comment on the activity taking place on the fringe
of the Festival, and so the term Fringe was born.

2017 marks the 70th anniversary of these eight groups defiance


and the Edinburgh Festival Fringe is now the largest arts festival
in the world. The Fringe is a truly open access festival where, in the
spirit of the original eight, no one is denied entry. Its a place where
everyone is welcome, where people can express themselves and
share their ideas freely, making it the largest platform on earth for
creative freedom.

70 years later and the Edinburgh Festival Fringe continues to go


from strength to strength, with tens of thousands of performers
and millions of visitors coming to Edinburgh every year to join in
the largest celebration of arts and culture in the world. No matter
what art form youre interested in the Fringe has something for
you. Amazing, inspiring and surprising world-class performances
take place here every day of the Fringe.

And that spark which was ignited in Edinburgh 70 years


ago has now circled the globe, inspiring a worldwide network
of more than 200 sister fringes, spread across every continent
(except Antarctica!).

In this, the 70th anniversary year of the Fringe, we invite you


to celebrate the eight groups who just wanted to share their
stories and who have inspired a worldwide movement, and
join our alliance of defiance as we celebrate 70 years of the
worlds largest platform for creative freedom.

We hope you enjoy your Fringe experience and that


you are inspired, challenged, moved and entertained.

This Really Is Too Much


Gracefool Collective in association with 3000 Trees:
Underbelly Untapped The Death of Mr William MacRae
TFjP Andy Paterson / Salt 'n' Sauce Promotions
Raucous, provocative and laugh-out-loud funny. Gracefool combine
dancing and dark comedy to reveal the absurdity of life as a TFM
three-dimensional, high-definition wo-man. 'Gleefully compelling' Patersons cult play about Willie MacRae anti-nuclear campaigner,
(ExeuntMagazine.com), slickly choreographed and dripping with SNP politician and successful lawyer. Was his death in 1985 suicide
satirical charm and anarchic wit. or murder by the state?
