We’re excited about the Edinburgh Fringe, but it’s clear it needs to change. A lot of people have a lot of ideas, but nothing has really happened yet. So we decided to ask the comedians themselves: in your fantasy, what would the Fringe look like? It might have been a mistake.
You might not always see them but you’re never more than two metres away from a Troll. Sick of being villainised, Trolls (Marie Kallevik Straume and Anna Marie Simonsen) are coming to Edinburgh to tell their side of the story. In a bid to make it more Troll friendly, the Edinburgh Fringe has implemented these changes.
Free goat curry everywhere.
Troll-only nights.
Gallons instead of pints.
Daily screenings of the TROLL movie followed by an informative presentation afterwards by REAL Trolls correcting the misinformation contained within the film.
Human flesh in the meat section of all good supermarkets.
A Fringe-wide ban of Askeladden. He shall not be admitted anywhere.
Troll-friendly merch including but not limited to caps, hoodies and human jerky.
More events after dark.
Troll discounts on the silent discos.
No humans allowed.
We don’t do what we do for awards, we just want to tell our stories, but to win a best Trolltor or Trolltress award would be nice.
Troll runs at Underbelly Cowgate from August 3-27th at 5:50pm. Tickets here
