MARK THOMAS 96 THE LIST FESTIVAL 20–31 Aug 2015

From The List ARCHIVE This wee preview is from 2001, when Mark Thomas was doing three different shows, all fundraising benefits (check out those young chaps below too). Ten years after he was nominated for a Perrier, Thomas outlines the ethical and moral difficulties behind accepting the award. This year is just as political (natch). In 2015, Thomas is focusing on one show: Trespass: A Work in Progress, which is rapidly selling out, so get your finger out if you want to be a part of it. Picking up where 100 Acts of Minor Dissent left off, Trespass embarks on a cheeky wee project to turn urban environments into our own personal playgrounds. Summerhall, 560 1581, until 30 Aug (not 20), 5pm, £12 (£8).
