| I'm performing in two Fringe shows this year; "Ae Fond Kiss" for Nonsense Room Productions, playing the lead role of Robert Burns in a new musical using some of Burns' best loved poems and songs to help tell the tale of his colourful life and many loves. (reviews at: http://www.edfringe.com/reviews/read.html?id=15398 and http://www.viewfromthestalls.co.uk/2009/08/ae-fond-kiss-edinburgh-fringe-2009.html ) Also appearing in "King Arthur" for Siege Perilous playing the role of the manipulative Sir Breunor, who uses Arthur's illegitimate son and disenchanted brother as mouthpieces for his own politics and rungs on the ladder to his ultimate aspiration; deposing the King and replacing him as ruler. "Ae Fond Kiss" features fellow CCP member, Gilchrist Muir. "King Arthur" features fellow CCP members; Paul Crommie, Damien Hughes and Colin Healy. | |

| I am not in a show at the Fringe, but I went to see a wonderful piece of theatre last night there, that I think could do with more publicity as it was simply marvelous! 'The Visitor', a new play by Jack Kelly. It's at 'The Space' at The Radisson at 5pm, every day except sundays until 23rd. Stephen Lloyd was particularly outstanding as the young Max. Gemma Salter | |

| Picaresque is definitely a fun show - I was cast in it by the very talented writer and producer, but had to turn the gig down in the end as it clashed with some work being generated independently by my agent. But I was allowed to read the script, and know that its combination of good jokes, surreal situations and ridiculous characters is just the thing that will cheer anyone up on a tired Edinburgh morning. If you are interested in fringe stand-up recommendations, I'd like to name check my good friends Paul Sweeney (who is orchestrating the eponymous 'Paul Sweeney and his Imaginary Friends') at the City Cafe for another week, and Jessica Fostekew and Dan Thompson in 'Pecker and Foof Save the World' at the Dragonfly. True, Remotegoat priority, I assume, is stage plays, but it doesn't hurt to mention these things, does it? | |

| Sorry I forgot to say I will be playing Kirsty. Set in the East End of London, Ridley's charming piece focuses on two fifteen-year-olds who confront their loneliness by exploring the language of theatre in a derelict community centre. A magical teen tale for all. £7 (£5 concession) | |
