i want to take a show to the edinburgh fringe haaaallllp!!!

Have you always wanted to take your solo show to the Edinburgh Fringe but shut down because you thought, “I HAVE NO IDEA WTF I’M DOING - THIS IS TOO HARD”? Same.

I’m Kelly - I’ve done the Edinburgh Fringe three years running (’23, ’24 & ’25). I self-produced my first two years - did it almost kill me? Yes. Was it worth it? Absolutely. Was it the biggest learning curve and the most exhausting, life-changing experience of my life? Yes.

The Fringe is a massive investment financially, physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually etc. etc. I’ll give you the real, practical stuff I wish someone had told me the first time: what matters, what to skip, what will cost you money and what will save you time.

During our 1-hour virtual session I’ll walk you through everything you need to get started and leave you with a detailed step-by-step PDF guide you keep forever.

We’ll cover:

  • Housing & where to look (and when to book - basically ASAP)

  • Marketing that actually gets eyes on your show

  • PR: who to look into and an example of my press release if you’re doing your own

  • Picking venues and understanding the venue landscape

  • Budgeting: real costs, realistic income expectations

  • Venue options (Free Fringe vs. Curated)

  • AND a bunch of Fringe hacks I learned the hard way
