Edinburgh Fringe: Overtone
05 August to 30 August
About Edinburgh Fringe: Overtone
When two teenagers meet after choir practice, they begin the most important relationship of their lives.
From Fringe First award-winning theatre-maker Tom Brennan (The Wardrobe Ensemble) comes an intimate, funny and unflinching new play about love and getting older – the adventures we were promised, the choices we think we made, and the cost of finally being honest.
Presented by double Fringe First award-winner The North Wall (Brown Boys Swim, E8) in association with Humphrey Battcock.
