First show of Edinburgh Festival Fringe was a belter from Amy Conway with 'Catafalque' which has some jaw-dropping moments as a celebrant tackles death, ritual and legacy. See it at Summerhall 1-11 Aug and then touring Scotland (and it's always ace to see one of my images out in the wild 👏)

Enjoyed Steve DePasquale's production of Catafalque Summerhall today. Beautifully written & performed by Amy Conway, from her experience as a local authority celebrant, Amy gives fascinating insights into the role, but what do you do when you have to write an eulogy for a monster?

"Death and taxes, as they say." Just like Amy proclaims in Catafalque, grief and loss is an inevitable part of life. Check out this article in the Scotsman, where Amy speaks to Susan Mansfield about what our show is exploring alongside death itself: buff.ly/3AbWcqj

When I take my seat up to six times a day in fringe venues over the coming days, I will remind myself that every show is a miracle. But theatre should not have to rely on miracles; we need investment. thestage.co.uk/opinion/edinbu…

So proud of Catafalque’s review from Scotsman Arts! “a controlled and delicately-paced one-hour monologue that saves its most shocking moments for the end, and leaves plenty of room for understanding and reflection.” - joycemcmillan ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Bravo Amy Conway and Beth Morton!

HUNDREDS of you have turned out at Holyrood to say no to the death of the arts in Scotland. Together we’re sending our message loud and clear: Stop the cuts - tax wealth instead!
