The Arches is thrilled to announce that Greg Sinclair's I Do, Do I will be presented at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2014. How much power could you entrust in a group of children? Would you let them tell you what to wear? Compose music for you to perform? Greg Sinclair would.

I Do, Do I is a unique performance featuring a series of Fluxus-inspired musical scores written by children and performed by a man. Under the instruction of local primary school children, award-winning artist Greg Sinclair throws grown-up sensibilities out the window and takes audiences on a whimsical, wonderful journey through childish imagination.

Greg Sinclair is an award-winning performance maker, cellist and composer whose work focuses on sound and music in physical performance. Collaborating with young people, Greg's work aims to capture the spirit of childish imagination. Greg has completed artist residencies with Citizens Theatre, Glasgow; Scottish Chamber Orchestra and Imaginate. His show Sonata for a Man and a Boy has toured extensively in Scotland and won a CATS award for Best Production for Children and Young People 2013.

I Do, Do I has been developed in association with The Arches and Greg is the winner of The Arches and Summerhall's Autopsy Award.
