No festival is complete without a Fringe and the first Bilingual St Clémentin Literary Festival was no exception! The only problem was, the instigators of the Fringe event had misread the schedule of the main Festival and found themselves competing with an important session of it - this was one the last day and rescheduling was not an option, even if Dónall and John had realised the problem before the show started. As it was, the Fringe performers found themselves winning the competition to the extent that they were almost drowning the words of the writer who was in the marquee across the courtyard. Something was said, and something had to be done - so the St Clémentin Fringe became the first Whispered Fringe event, probably in the whole history of Festivals and their Fringes. Here are tthre of the performers who contributed - after the transformation into muted mode - as well as the Reel to Real Show, by John and Donall! |
