King's Head and In Your Face presented by Seabright Live

Acclaimed immersive rewiring of Irvine Welsh's classic, performed in a unique venue beneath EICC. The audience are literally part of the action, including the notorious 'worst toilet in Scotland' scene. Tenth Fringe season after nine sell-outs: early booking recommended! Choose life. 'The most uncompromising and controversial show you are likely to see anywhere' ***** (BroadwayBaby.com). 'Will chew you up and spit you out, and you'll thank it for the privilege. It's more than theatre – it's a celebration of Edinburgh's grit, wit and humanity' ***** (TheArtsBusiness.com). 'Better than either the book or film in my opinion' (Irvine Welsh).
