FRINGE MEMORIES; GARY MCNAIR IN CONVERSATION WITH STEVE COOGAN at SHEDINBURGH FRINGE FESTIVAL 

3rd September @ 9:15pm 

FRINGE MEMORIES; GARY MCNAIR IN CONVERSATION WITH STEVE COOGAN is part of SHEDINBURGH FRINGE FESTIVAL a brand new online festival and fundraiser presenting the very best of the Fringe stalwarts of theatre, music and comedy, and the best new acts, all performed live from sheds across the country and streamed into people’s homes this August. 

*FESTIVAL EXCLUSIVE*

Legendary writer, actor and comedian Steve Coogan launched his career at the Edinburgh Festival. In a SHEDINBURGH exclusive Steve talks to Gary McNair about winning the Perrier, what comedy means to him and his promise to one day return to the Festival. This rare, candid deep dive into one of Britain’s most celebrated stars’ relationship to the world’s biggest festivals will only be streamed once and is not to be missed.

TELL ME MORE ABOUT SHEDINBURGH

SHEDINBURGH is a programme of live-streamed socially distanced performances from sheds based at either The Traverse Theatre in Edinburgh, Soho Theatre in London, or from the homes of those artists unable to travel at this time.

Acts have been asked to revive and reimagine past performances for a shed, rather than a theatre, with minimal staging and with a digital audience. A challenge worthy of the Fringe, our performers are taking on quite the task. 

At a time when venues face an uncertain future and artists are struggling SHEDINBURGH will shout loud about the Fringe’s vital role in global culture, celebrate its past successes and breakthrough artists and provide a platform for the talent that would have been on this year. 

SHEDINBURGH will take place between 14 August – 5 September with daily events including ‘one night only’ performances from established Fringe favourites, slots for new artists through Open Call Submissions and industry panel discussions. 

Featuring shows from Helen Baer, Tim Crouch, Rosie Jones, Adam Kashmiry, Yolanda Mercy, Deborah Frances-White, Gary McNair, Sara Pascoe, Steen Raskopoulos, Jack Rooke, Joe Sellman-Leava, Mark Thomas and more.
