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.

Each summer, young Jamie comes to the same spot on the same beach and speaks with a mysterious figure – the king of a magical realm far, far away. As the years pass, their conversations begin to blur the lines between reality and fiction, while Jamie watches his country and his identity change in ways he could not anticipate. Written by a Turkish playwright, The Sun King is a queer, political coming-of-age fantasy that combines powerful writing with a new perspective on all-too-familiar themes.
