Peregrinations is a wordless play combining mask, movement, puppetry and object theatre with original music to tell stories of migration, displacement and how borders impact our bodies.

Have you done the fringe before? What are the key pieces of advice you have been given or would give to new groups or people performing at the fringe.
Blake: Drink lots of water, always bring a jacket, visit the mile at least once, play golf at the meadows, hang out at the pavilions and common areas to meet people, sleep occasionally, see lots of circus!
Julia: This is my fourth time at the Ed Fringe—always under the careful umbrella of the Dutch Kills Theater Company.
From the very first time I walked its streets, I’ve told myself: allow yourself to get lost. Step outside the tourist zone and truly fall in love with the city and its people.
Arthur’s Seat is a must. Go to the Royal Botanic Garden and take a walk along the Water of Leith
Are you part of the festival? Do you have a pass? Squeeze it for all it’s worth—like the juiciest lemon! Go see everything you can; meet people and discover other ways of understanding and interpreting theater. The festival is incredibly friendly; we’ll all be there, doing what we love. Champion other theater companies. A chain of mutual support is essential to theater, and it fuels word-of-mouth.
Talk us through your daily routine for a day at the Fringe
Blake: In past years I was working as a street performer and had to be present at the “draw” each morning, which was a fun gathering ritual at which we received our spots and time slots for the day, because of this I spent most of my days on the mile and really felt like I was at the center of fringe. This year will be a little different as I’m performing in two shows, so I imagine it will go something like the following: Wake up, coffee, theatre, walk, theatre, lunch, theatre, run because late to a theatre, beer, theatre, fit dinner in there somewhere, rinse, repeat
Ok, where is your favourite place to eat at the Fringe?
Blake: Moms and Salt Horse
Best thing about performing at the fringe?
Blake:The incredible audiences! Theatre lovers from around the world
Julia: Other than performing at the Fringe Festival in Edinburgh???
Do you bring anything special from home to make it feel more special whilst you are away?
Blake: Wish I could say my cat but I guess a picture of my cat?
What are your best hacks to save money whilst at the Fringe?
Blake: Earn it back by street performing
If people want to find out more about you where can they follow you on social media?

And Finally in three words – Why should people come and see the show?
Heartfelt, transformative and magical
