Edinburgh 2009: David Calvitto and The Event
in Actors and Performers, Edinburgh Festival and Fringe
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.
