For kids or not for kids - that is the question. We chat about what's on at the Festival for young'uns and ask if we're doing enough to cater for them.
On Tuesday's Festival Caf脙漏: We hear all about what's available for Kids at the Festival this year: Kidzone at the Pleasance is putting families first with the Pleasance Ark - an ideal venue for the ever expanding selection of children's shows and the Pleasance Kidzone Dropzone - a cr脙篓che for 3-8 year olds. Arts Critic and mum of two Jane Graham rounds up the best of what's on for kids this year and we hear about a brilliant way of introducing young audiences to Shakespeare - Just McBeth
Britain's foremost chansonnier and song stylist, Barb Jungr, demonstrates why she is one of the country's finest interpreters of contemporary song by providing a musical snapshot of her Assembly Rooms show this year.
Theatre director John Tiffany: the man behind Black Watch and the recent reinvention of Peter Pan, complete with puppets, magic and a Highlands setting discusses his upcoming Masterclass.
All that and and the award-winning play Freefall: moving and mischievously playful, Freefall , is in part an anatomy of a downwardly spiralling nation rocked to its foundations and confronted with the same life-or-death questions as the play's central character. It charts a man's journey back through his life, as he hovers on the brink of life and death after suffering a massive stroke. - don't miss it!
