On Wednesday 26 August -- Valeria Vulpe will not be performing.
Instead the special guest will be Connor Burns (who sold out before the
fringe opened so this is the final opportunity for people to still see
him.)
On Friday 28 August -- Valeria Vulpe will be the sole performer
as Daniel Petrie is unable to perform due to personal circumstances.
