LGBTQ+, Storytelling

Selkie: Past, Present, Future

Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2026

(Wed 19-Sun 30 Aug)

Niall Moorjani (Fringe First winner) and Ailsa Dixon (★★★★★, Scotsman) present an evocative and moving exploration of what it is to be human, as they lyrically synthesise storytelling with live music and Orcadian folk song.

Come for the music, stories and songs, stay for the deep exploration of trans experience in Scotland today, through three queered and reimagined selkie stories set in past, present and future.

BSL interpreted Fri 21 Aug. Interpretation by Sarah Forrester.
Captioned Sat 22 Aug. Open captioning by Claire Hill.
