EDINBURGH - For many home-grown performers at the world’s largest arts festival, Britain’s looming departure from the European Union presents a unique artistic challenge.
For Marcus Brigstocke, a fixture of television and radio since being discovered at his first fringe in 1996, Brexit was “a most extreme example of something where I have really struggled to find what’s funny”. Brigstocke, like many at this year’s fringe - which runs until Aug. 26 - views himself as being on pro-remain territory because of the festival’s emphasis on inclusivity and the fact Scotland voted to stay in the EU.
“It’s unique. In past shows I’ve created tension, but it’s normally to do with me rather than the audience,” Nelson said.
