'Festival' (18)
The lives and dreams of a dozen people intersect in this darkly comic ensemble tale built around the Edinburgh festival. Writer-director Annie Griffin's acerbic satire on the frayed edges of the Edinburgh Fringe. A one-woman play about Dorothy Wordsworth, a Canadian performance-art piece in which the audience sniff fresh-cut grass, and a cat fight between mendaciously competitive, unfunny comedians all ring horribly true. A strong ensemble cast, including Green Wing's excellently loathsome Stephen Mangan. "Festival is an endearing British comedy that captures the vibe and surreal charm of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. It’s as cluttered full of crazy characters as the Royal Mile on a Saturday in August." Anna Smith - Empire 'Trout' was directed by Johnny Barrington from Sleat, one of many young people making a career in contrmporary culture and music from Skye. Fish, exploding caravans in the serenity of the Hebridean coast.Date: 22/07/07
