Solo Show, Historical

A Noble Clown


Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2025

(31 Jul-14 Aug: 6:45pm)

Duncan Macrae, Scotland’s greatest actor, star of the Citizens Theatre, a champion of the early Edinburgh Fringe and theatre for all – especially in the Scots tongue.

This new play explores Macrae's life through some of his greatest roles, from Macbeth and Jamie the Saxt to his signature tune The Wee Cock Sparra. A performance full of passion and respect for his public achievement and his private depth. A life cruelly cut short as international fame beckoned...

Written and performed by Michael Daviot. Directed by Michael Nardone.

'There’s something remarkably special here' ★★★★★ (CorrBlimey.uk)
'First rate' ★★★★★ (AllEdinburghTheatre.com)
'Beautifully mercurial performance' ★★★★★ (MustSeeTheatre.com)

Preview: 31 Jul
2 for 1: 4 & 5 Aug
