Edinburgh Fringe Festival

The Edinburgh Festival Fringe (commonly known as The Fringe) started in 1947 when 8 theatre groups turned up uninvited to the first Edinburgh International Festival (EIF). Over the years, more perfomers came to Edinburgh to perform on the outskirts of the EIF and by 1958 the Festival Fringe Society was formed to provide information, a central box office and a published programme of all the Fringe shows. Central to the society's constitution was the policy that there should be no artistic vetting from the society. Which still holds true to this very day.
The Fringe caters for the biggest names in showbiz to the performers in the street and covers all sorts of art forms such as theatre, comedy, children's shows, dance, physical theatre, musicals, operas, all genres of music, exhibitions, and events. In 2008, hundreds of groups participated in putting on 2,088 different shows with a total of 31,320 performances in 247 venues.

The Fringe is the largest of a number of festivals that come together in Scotland's capital every year, in and around August.

The Fringe is an open arts festival, which means that anyone can perform without any constraints from the Festival Fringe Society. The Festival Fringe Society (commonly known as the Fringe Office) does not produce any of the shows, does not invite anybody to perform, does not run any venues and pays no fees to performers. They do, however, help performers every step of the way.

So, here's one more reason to come to Edinburgh!! Come and join the thousands of visitors that visit the city willing to participate in one of the most important events of the world. It runs from the 7th to the 31st of August. Don't miss it!!

inlingua Edinburgh will be a Fringe Festival venue again this year...

For the fourth year running, inlingua Edinburgh will be a Venue again during the Fringe Festival 2009.

We are delighted to announce the return of two long-standing artists/ performers, Nick Pynn and Paul Webster.

Nick Pynn is an outstanding musician who has won the Spirit of the Fringe Award and whose CD ''Afterplanesman'' was awarded amongst the 100 top CDs of 2008 by the Times! Come and join him for an evening of fantastic and highly original music in the Red Room by candle light and lose yourself in his melodies, rhythms and stories – all accompanied by his own devised musical instruments as well as classic guitar, violin and the cocolele! Nick Pynn consistently and regularly gets 4 and 5* reviews.

Paul Webster is a truly remarkable actor who portrays Adolf Hitler in his final hour in the bunker. Paul's performance is very powerful and gives us insight into this notorious, dangerous dictator and it is hard to believe it is Paul who sits in front of us! ''Hitler Alone'' has been reviewed every year as an extraordinary 4* show – for those who wish to have an audience with Adolf.
