Edinburgh Festival Fringe

Classic big band jazz and swing from across the ages, played by a very big band indeed – back for our regular slot at the Fringe. Join us for charts you'll love from Count Basie, Glenn Miller, Melba Liston and Duke Ellington, all the way to the present day, plus some more left-field choices. Dancing in the aisles is strongly encouraged, or sit back and be blown away by this wonderful, timeless music.

2017. Chloe and Mark re-locate to Manchester. Twenty-two people are killed at The Manchester Arena during an Ariana Grande concert. The One Love concert is held for the victims. The play mixes debates with the American political philosopher Noam Chomsky and the story of a couple coming undone. To go with the flow for pleasant life or stand fast to what you believe in? Can you do one while pretending to do the other? A provocative duologue looking at populism vs principles and the temptation to switch off from the world outside our own lives vs engagement.
