Edinburgh 2009: David Calvitto and The Event

21st August 2009

 

EDINBURGH FRINGE 2009

Actor and producer David Calvitto performs an extract from John Clancy’s comic monologue about stage acting, The Event (Assembly Rooms), which won a Fringe First, and then talks to Philip Fisher about the show, which is a metaphor for theatre.

To get a Fringe First by the first weekend means everything – it’s early acclaim, it’s fantastic, and it sells seats.
