We are mid way through the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, one of the most exciting showcases of creative performance in the world. Of course, there will be some Dundee creative’s rubbing shoulders among this exciting pool of international talent.
We’d like to give a big shout some of those working hard in Edinburgh during this month. If you can’t make through, I’m sure they will be back to entertain us all in Dundee very soon.
Good luck everyone!

‘We are gutsy but always take ourselves with a pinch of salt and hopefully provide a comic injection!’
St Andrews university students by day, a cappella group by night, The Accidentals are on a summer break with a difference. This year is the group’s first time at The Fringe. Having been the only all female group to make it to the London Finals of the UK Voice Festival, they can now pride themselves as the “Best all female group in the UK”.
They describe their style as “A mix of the freshest songs and the fiercest beats”. The audience can expect anything from hip hop, disco, jazz, and Motown
