Ghosts and Murders!
The Real Mary King's Close

Underneath the Royal Mile lies one of Edinburgh's deepest secrets - the award-winning The Real Mary King's Close visitor attraction.

 

For years, the hidden Closes of Old Town Edinburgh have been shrouded in myths and mysteries, with blood curdling tales of ghosts and murders, and of plague victims being walled up and left to die.  Research and archaeological evidence have revealed a truer story, rooted in fact and - as is so often the case - more fascinating than any amount of fiction.

One Pen Drawing

This 20-30 minute ice breaker is guaranteed to produce very different and creative results, and provide much frustration and competition throughout:

 

1. Divide your group up into 2 teams or more with less than 10 people in each team.

 

2. Give each team one pen, one flip chart and a theme for drawing, e.g. a cow parachuting.

The Inbetweeners & Pink Fridays

the inbetweeners

During the Edinburgh Festival we get requests to run all types of events, (not many of which fit in with our business mix :-)  

 

In 2008 the Inbetweeners asked us if we could host their fringe show called "The Meeting" as they wanted to run it in a business environment.
