Description

Theatre on the Edge returns to the Fringe after last year's production of Kerouac: And All That Jazz (***** (EdinburghGuide.com)). Edinburgh Tales is a contemporary adaptation of Chaucer's Canterbury Tales with the original bawdy humour, humanity and drama brought up to date in a 2024 retelling of four of the medieval stories. Instead of a pilgrimage to Canterbury these Pilgrims make their annual pilgrimage to Edinburgh. Are you a Fringe Pilgrim? Join us, the Miller, Knight and Wife of Bath at The Tabard Inn for an uproarious afternoon.
