Edinburgh Festival Fringe – Is this family Insane?

 

IS THIS FAMILY INSANE?

Think it’s hard to get your family out the door on a normal day? Consider doing it with a toddler, a baby, props, costumes, musical equipment, flyers, posters, badges and CD’s for two separate shows. Oh and you’re not just popping down the road but flying 27 hours from Australia to the other side of the world….. thank god for grandma!

Fringe Veteran Melissa Western and musican-extraordinaire partner Tnee Dyer will be presenting two brand new shows at Edinburgh Fringe 2013. Inspired by their recent foray into parenthood the couple will play their children’s show, Lissa & Nee Nee’s Riverside Adventures, most mornings at 10am at Paradise in the Kirkhouse and child-free they’ll perform their 50s talk-back love radio inspired, jazz cabaret Sweet, Sour and Saucy at The Jazz Bar.

Lucky for Melissa and Tnee they will also be joined by grandma ”Roma” (Rowenna Western) who is herself no stranger to the spotlight having been crowned Miss Max Factor 1961 back in the day when people like Marlon Brando, Ginger Rogers and Rock Hudson sent you telegrams of congratulations. Food for thought for a new show in 2014….!
