The Spontaneity Shop was delighted to be a part of the Edinburgh Fringe 2000, where we performed both Gorilla Theatre and Dreamdate at the Gilded Balloon - one of the top Fringe venues.

Both shows were overwhelmingly well-received, with Dreamdate in particular getting a great deal of press attention. As a result of our Edinburgh shows, Dreamdate is now being developed for television.
