Long Live The Little Knife, Fire Exit/David Leddy
Long Live The Little Knife is a fast-paced, absurd and uplifting theatre piece about forgery, castration and blind drunkenness.
Multi-award-winning ‘theatrical maverick’ (Sunday Times), ‘site-specific genius’ (Scotsman) and ‘Fringe institution’ (Independent) David Leddy presents this dynamic, uplifting escapade about art forgery, castration and blind drunkenness.
Liz and Jim are small-time con artists who need £250,000 fast. They decide to become the world’s greatest counterfeiters. There’s only one problem. They can’t paint.
This boisterous caper finds the absurd connections between verbatim theatre, free-market economics and a castrated labradoodle in a classic Chanel clutch bag.
Developed with support from Royal Shakespeare Company and British Museum.

Mairi Campbell: Pulse
Greengold Projects and Authentic Artist Collective
An award-winning Scottish musician’s solo quest to heal cultural wounds. A homecoming in viola, voice, movement, animation and storytelling. From London’s classical Guildhall training, to love and danger in Mexico, discovering step-dancing in Cape Breton, Campbell “becomes a bold chameleon in her own back-story, switching characters as she goes… On a stage bare but for a rough-hewn pendulum – its flat stone culled from her family’s croft – Campbell opens her throat in a spirit of belonging that is ancient and modern, and life affirming for all of us.” Mary Brennan, Herald ****. Co-devised and directed by Kath Burlinson.
