Our Friends at the Fringe

As well as our in-house shows, Two Shades of Blue is delighted to be supporting two exciting shows at this year’s Edinburgh Fringe.

Left in the care of an evil governess, two cousins must fight to survive and regain what is rightfully theirs. Joan Aiken’s rollicking tale of dangerous villains, mistreated orphans, shipwreck, daring escape and terrifying wolves is brought to the stage by Not Cricket Productions.

Set during the fictional nineteenth century reign of James III, this faithful adaptation is location-specific, and uses puppetry, music and steampunk visuals to bring the novel to life.

Premiering at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2011, you can catch ‘The Wolves of Willoughby Chase’ from 3rd-29th August, 5.20pm daily at C soco . For more details and bookings, just go to the website

On a somewhat different note: Sally Outen works in a bookshop. She went to Indonesia, once. She likes cats. She’s also transsexual, bisexual, and a (not angry, just disappointed) feminist. She’d quite like to talk about books, cats, and Indonesia, but people always seem more interested in the shape of her genitals…
Sally is performing on the 20th and 22-29 August – The Bongo Club. For more details, please look at her website.
