Performers entertaining the crowds on the Royal Mile at the 2009 Edinburgh Fringe Festival


Singing performance on the Royal Mile at the 2009 Edinburgh Fringe Festival in Scotland. The Edinburgh festival began as a post war initiative to reunite Europe through culture. At that time 8 uninvited theatre companies turned up and fended for themselves. A critic the following year dubbed the gatecrashers' enterprise - the fringe of the official festival drama - and the name and spirit of the fringe was born.
