Storytelling, Traditional

Scotland Unsung


Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2025

(20-24 Aug: 12pm)

Beneath the Scotland you think you know lies a deeper story waiting to be told.

Meet Scotia — a character travelling through time, place, class and gender, inspired by Virginia Woolf’s Orlando. Join them to experience different moments in Scotland’s past and challenge the dominant narrative with tales of queer desire, women’s rebellion, and interrogation of supernatural myths.

Far from a nostalgia trip, this is a reclamation: folk traditions telling difficult truths, creating safe spaces, and exploring radical ideas, resilience, and transformation. An antithesis to tartan tat performed in the heart of the Royal Mile.

'Her melding of the traditional with the modern is entrancing' (Scotsman)
