ALAN BISSETT presents his new solo show THE RED HOURGLASS
"Multi-talented writer/performer Alan Bissett bring us his smash-hit Fringe show, The Red Hourglass, in which he plays several species of spider. From the hilarious truth-telling of the Glaswegian house spider (he prefers not to be called ‘common’), the political call-to-arms of the Venezualan tarantula and the erotic murder ballad of the Black Widow, The Red Hourglass is a dark, witty, sexy satire; both a laugh-out-loud natural history lesson and a compelling analogy for the state of things today."
‘Bissett is a terrific performer, with wit, sharp political intelligence, and an ability to entertain his growing army of fans.’ – Joyce McMillan, The Scotsman
‘Who knew it could be so enjoyable to spend an evening trapped in a room with a gang of man-sized spiders? A real Fringe gem.’ Alice Jones, The Independent
