Mayflies

Award-winning Fringe favourites Grid Iron present the world premiere of Mayflies, a site-specific adaptation of Andrew O'Hagan's best-selling novel. Everyone has a Tully Dawson: the friend that defines your life.

This tale of 80s youth and facing mortality in middle age is a joyous and heart-breaking elegy to the young people we still carry within us. With an epic soundtrack forged straight from the heart of the 80s, a former metalworks in Leith echoes the iconic venues of Manchester's music scene, providing an ideal setting for this love letter to friendship, and a pledge: go at life differently.
