Laura, the writer, producer, and actor playing Winifred Baxter in Time & Again's latest show, Clouds, is taking to the skies in the lead up to the Edinburgh Fringe to experience what it's really like to wield the controls of a plane. The only problem - she's absolutely terrified of flying! Last Tuesday she managed … Continue reading Flying Lesson
Time & Again Book Club: The Wild Air by Rebecca Mascull
To bring our plays to life, we find it invaluable to immerse ourselves in books, exhibitions, films and documentaries all about the era and context in which our stories are set.

Letters from the Home Front – Edinburgh Diary Day 12
Sunday 12th August 2018 It was here. Our day off had arrived. And boy was I glad not to be flyering on this wet and gloomy Sunday. Even the usually wildly vocal seagulls had decided to have a lie in and avoid the vicious downpour. Fiona headed out first for a day of bookish fun. … Continue reading Letters from the Home Front – Edinburgh Diary Day 12
Letters from the Home Front – Edinburgh Diary Day 11
Saturday 11th August 2018 Amazingly, given the fact that half the Greyhounds stayed up partying and singing Hey Mr Miller in the local takeaway until the small hours the night before, we actually managed to get out of bed on Saturday morning and have a somewhat productive day. I even met a friend for some … Continue reading Letters from the Home Front – Edinburgh Diary Day 11

Letters from the Home Front – Edinburgh Diary Day 10
Friday 10th August 2018 Friday dawned bright and clear. Possibly. We've been here for so long that we've lost all track of the concept of time and each day goes in a second, but also takes an eternity, and we can't remember one from the next. However, I do remember this... We split off into … Continue reading Letters from the Home Front – Edinburgh Diary Day 10
Reviews from the Home Front – The House of Edgar
A bleak Thursday night (it was drizzling a bit) nearing midnight (10pm) and we waited outside an old church (lit with bright green lights and manned by some friendly Fringe staff, but shhh) to see Argosy Arts Theatre's The House of Edgar. The atmopshere was tense and palpable, sort of, but we were most definitely … Continue reading Reviews from the Home Front – The House of Edgar
