Everyone comes back – that’s the simple, unwritten rule about the Fringe. Be it a comic returning each year as his talents grow; an actor who’s been absent for 15 years but still has a place in his heart; or the musician that wants to play with the best, for more dates, and more acclaim. It all comes back to Edinburgh. In August. Every year.

Sometimes your Edinburgh experience improves every year, sometimes you bounce up and down (while friends go to Hollywood) and other times you decide to try and look back at your life and see what’s changed. That’s The Fringe.
