Wanted: Enthusiastic person to help live literature professional during Edinburgh Fringe

Posted by

The duties would be:
Approx 4pm-7.30pm, 2-8 August, helping with Poet in Residence show as required: Flyering (probably on the Royal Mile and outside the venue), ushering audience members, helping ensure stage is set up (only a mic and a stand!), staying on door duty throughout the performance, ensuring each show’s support act is there, bringing refreshments as needed, holding bucket to collect money at the end of the performance.

Also:
Sometimes flyering for 40 mins or so outside Pleasance Queendome ahead of 12.20 show (5th-8th)
Some help with putting posters up
Exit-flyering relevant shows (particularly shows you choose to go see anyway)

In return you’d get a good insight into the madness that is live literature during the Fringe, which might hopefully be useful in future.

Hard work- but with time to go see things you want to see before and after. A great reference from me. £20 expenses per day, plus return train ticket.
