Our Tour Guide is being forced to leave his home - Auld Reekie - and today will be his last tour. As the evening sun sets both on Edinburgh and on the Guide's checkered past, he must battle his demons, not to mention Princes Street traffic, in this bitterly comic tale that promises to be one of the most theatrical and moving (quite literally) shows this year, cutting right to the heart of the place the festival calls home. Edinburgh itself provides the set, lights, sound (and weather) in a specially commissioned drama by James Graham, Writer in Residence at the Finborough, currently working on a new play for the National Theatre, and a screenplay going into production with BBC Films, announced recently at this year’s Cannes Film Festival.
