                   Gordon Sixpense- The Story

The Sixpence Brothers
Legendary music publisher Stephen Squeak (born Arthur Sixpence) has died, leaving his multi-billion dollar fortune to his teenage seventh wife and not a penny to his struggling musician sons - Gordon, Dickie and Bernard. The Sixpence brothers, now bankrupted by their legal efforts to claim the estate, have been forced to make a bold shift in tactics.
They have hit the road and taken to theatres across the country to tell the world their story. That Gordon, the eldest and most eccentric of the trio, was responsible for writing every song that Stephen Squeak published. Almost every popular classic of the last fifty years was created by Gordon, secretly recorded by Stephen and then sold to the highest bidder.
They may be united in purpose but the brothers struggle to mask their dysfunction and squabble endlessly. Gordon is particularly troubled - easily confused and only able to communicate through his lyrics. And yet, he is the only one with the power to bring the family back together, to inspire them to perform at their best and to prove to the world, once and for all, that (to paraphrase a Gordon original made famous by Barry Manilow) "he is music and he writes the songs"!

The Edinburgh Fringe Festival - regarded as the world's biggest arts festival - gets underway today with a record number of acts ready to entertain audiences. Comedians, musicians, dancers and actors from more than 40 countries will take to the streets and stages of the Scottish capital between the 2nd and 26th of August.

Organisers revealed that 2013 will be a record year with 2,871 shows set to be performed by 24, 107 artists in 273 venues - an increase of 6.5 per cent on last year's programme.

Plenty of famous faces continue to return each year with Jason Manford, Russell Kane, Reginald D Hunter and Jenny Eclair among the more established names set to perform throughout August.

Ticket prices vary with both established and unknown acts performing, but organisers said there were over 713 free shows this year.

The Chief Executive of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society, KathMaitland, said the event was a "festival of discovery":

You never know what you're going to get with the Fringe, that'sthe beauty of it, what we do know is that tens of thousands of artists arealready descending on the city to bring the best work they possibly can toaudiences.

What the response will be we don't know and I guess that'sthe excitement of it, it's a festival of discovery really.

Dance at Edinburgh fringe festival

Sluts Of Possession | Ménage Á Trois | Squish | The Lock In

  The Guardian,
 
Sluts Of Possession
Sluts Of Possession
 

The fringe opens its doors to the usual uncategorisable mix of the established and the experimental, with new venues making for an even wider range of work across the city. Among the most familiar names to launch this week are choreographers Claire Cunningham and Rosie Kay. The latter's new work Sluts Of Possession (Dance Base, to 23 Aug) is a duet with Guilherme Miotto (pictured with Kay), in which she explores the world of trance and possession. A collaboration with film-maker Louis Price, the work promises to frame vibratingly intense choreography with images from anthropological archives. Cunningham's Ménage à Trois (Paterson's Land, Fri to 25 Aug) is another collaboration – with video artist Gail Sneddon – and focuses on the two crutches Cunningham has had to use for the past 20 years. It offers a darkly comic portrait of the difficulties of finding love when there are "already three of you in the relationship". The emotional dramas in Squish (Dance Base, to 17 Aug), are framed within the game of squash; it's a high-energy piece in which dancer Tony Mills channels issues of choice and competition within the intense footwork and cut and thrust of the sport. Finally, a delicious clash of cultures is created in The Lock In (Zoo Southside, Sat to 16 Aug), as the conceit of a late-night drinking session brings together rival groups of breakdancers and folk singers. It's a modern culture clash, performed by dance company Breaking Tradition and folk group The Demon Barbers.
