Cult Espresso

104 Buccleuch St

Featuring a wide selection of expertly crafted coffees, Cult Espresso is the place to go if you’re serious about your brew. Tucked away on Buccleuch Street, it’s also perfect if you’re wanting to ease into the day away from the hustle and bustle.

11am – 12.10pm

Burgerz

Traverse Theatre

In 2016, someone threw a burger and shouted a transphobic slur at performance artist Travis Alabanza. Over the course of Burgerz, Alabanza tries to comes to terms with the incident by literally making a burger onstage in this powerful and raw performance piece.

3.45pm – 4.45pm
 

Nightclubbing

Summerhall

 Inspired by Grace Jones’ seminal album of the same name, Rachael Young’s Nightclubbing highlights the discrimination Black women still face, and celebrates their strength through dance and an excellent soundtrack of 80s synth-pop and new wave.

5.30pm – 6.30pm

Troy Hawke: Tiles of the Unexpected!

Underbelly

 After introducing him to the world last year with 1001 Moments with Troy Hawke, prolific character comedian Milo McCabe brings his foppish naif persona back to Edinburgh in this bizarre, engaging and hilarious hour.

The Mosque Kitchen

31 Nicolson Sq

A Fringe institution and all-round winner, the Mosque Kitchen serves up delicious curry all day long with huge plates of spicy goodness starting at just a few quid. If you haven’t been yet, go now. It’s also in a great location; just a few minutes walk from the four major venues.

11.20pm – 12.20pm

Leo Mohr: When I Was Zorro

Heroes @ Dragonfly

A carefully-structured, but unpredictable and spontaneous debut from this Swiss clown. This special show is an exercise in self-degradation, with an anti-comic hero who never lets the mask slip. Excellent late night Fringe fayre.
