A Fringe Quickie (#190) with ‘Witches Corner’

Questions answered by Eilidh Smith.

Q1: Aside from this Quickie, what is the most desperate marketing tactic you plan on using to get bums in seats this August? 280 chars

Four words… RELEASE DORIS THE COW!!!

Q2: Cancel culture has finally come for your show. What sins has it committed?

Too many to count … we will ask you to repent for your sins during the show. What secrets are you hiding? We can’t wait to find out mwahaha.

Q3: The Fringe is horribly expensive. How are you financing this run? Did you remortgage your house, sell your granny, or start an illicit side hustle?

Our writer (Eilidh) is going to throw herself out of a plane for funding … literally!!

Q4: If all the shows running right now were at a massive Fringe house party, what is your show doing?

We’d be either serenading you in Scottish folk music or giving you a tarot reading in the corner of the room.
