Rachel Rose Reid: And They Lived

Once upon a time – that is at 10.45pm in a modest attic room at The Pleasance … animated storyteller Rachel Rose Reid delights her grown up audience with traditional tales from around the globe. Charismatic and engaging she will have you stamping, clapping, growling and lapping up her every word until the time comes to go and live happily ever after (or at least for a good few hours anyway).

Pleasance Courtyard, 556 6550, until 25 Aug, 10.45pm, £8 (£6.50).
