Fringe of Colour

Ryan Coogler's SINNERS debuts on Max on July 4, with a version of the film featuring Black American Sign Language streaming alongside the original version. This marks the first time a streaming platform will exclusively debut a film interpreted in BASL.

Big thanks to the Fringe Society @edfringe who've supported this work with a much needed grant. The Fringe of Colour Database has been going since 2018 but it would have been impossible to continue without genuine financial support 🤑🤑🤑🤑

If you're struggling to decide what to see at this year's @edfringe have a look at the 285 shows (and counting) now listed on this year's Fringe of Colour Database - a comprehensive list of all the shows & events that centre Artists of Colour👇🏽 docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…

Beloved Glasgow artist @CelloSeales and provider of haunting cello on the new @Youngfathers #28YearsLater soundtrack is just a small push away from reaching their Kickstarter target for their new album Dearest. Help them along the line if you can: kickstarter.com/projects/simon…

@FringeofColour This had me guffaw outloud. I’m only back because I’m going to fringe this year. And there will be no premium. Twitter without a safety net. Old school.

Crawling out of hiberation because there's some really good sh*t coming to the Edinburgh festivals this August 👀👀

@FringeofColour I'm coming back for round 2, bigger and better! #edfringe #storytelling #soloperformer @theSpaceUK

@AnsaEdim @theSpaceUK I saw! Wonderful news, Ansa

Are artists still here? Are audiences? Seeing a lot of screaming and a lot of celeb gossip. Time to find out if Twitter still has any sort of communicative value!

We are deeply troubled by Twitter's new policy on blocking, which has always been our first defence from racist trolling and harassment. We have locked our account for now, until we have made a decision on how best to navigate these changes (or until they are reversed).

We're trying out something new with these event listings, which will be semi-regular. Do you have an event you'd like us to help promote? Get in touch via press[at]fringeofcolour[dot]co[dot]uk. Events must take place in Scotland and centre Black people and People of Colour.
