This year, Good Life, Good Death, Good Grief will be getting involved in the Edinburgh Fringe with a new project – Death on the Fringe.
Death on the Fringe is a series of shows that look at death and dying from different perspectives – some serious, some comical – but all contributing to the debate on death and end of life matters.
Performers include comic Robyn Perkins, who recounts the lighter aspects of the death of her partner in Over It. Three housemates figure out how to cope with the death of the fourth in the drama Chris Is Dead. Nathan Cassidy ponders what to do if you know your Date Of Death. Meanwhile, the 80 year old Lynn Ruth Miller (as seen on Britain's Got Talent) brings us a stand-up routine to show she's Not Dead Yet!
The Edinburgh Fringe is the world's largest arts festival with attendances of over 2 million. It has a history of showing cutting edge and thought provoking arts events, making it the ideal place to encourage more public openness and debate about death, dying and bereavement.
Death on the Fringe takes place between 1 and 25 August, with a special launch event on 1 August. Find out more at the Death on the Fringe website.
