EDINBURGH 2017:BWW Q&A- Mark Thomas
Tell us a bit about A Show That Gambles On The Future.
I have decided to add some more chaos to an uncertain world by getting the audience to forecast what the future holds for us. Using the hive mind of the audience, we try and work out what events are likely to occur in the next few years.
Why bring it to Edinburgh?
Why bring a show to the biggest arts festival in the world that I have been coming to since I was 19? Good question Scooby....Oh I guess it's because it's the biggest arts festival in the world and I have been coming to it since I was 19.
It's FUN! The festival is exciting, why would I not want to be involved?
How involved can the audience get?
Very.
What sets it apart from other shows at the Fringe?
You're the critics, you tell me. My job is to make the show work, yours is to describe it...
Who would you recommend comes to see you?
The living.
