Welcome… Come closer… This is no ordinary fire. Step into an intimate, immersive campfire where mythical forces of nature meet in the shadow of a changing world. Once again guided by AI database, Symbiolene, as she conjures figures from her past: The Green Man, Brigid and the Cailleach. These beings, woven into her code, are a clear reminder that nature has memory and that when the earth is pushed too far, its spirits may seek vengeance. Through haunting audiovisuals evoking gentle warnings and broken covenants, this atmospheric experience lifts the veil from past to present.

About Venue 13
Venue 13, located in Harry Younger Hall at the foot of the Royal Mile, has been a fixture of the Edinburgh Fringe since 1980. Managed by the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama (RWCMD) since 1996, and now taken over by producers Ian Garrett and Vanesa Kelly, the venue is renowned for showcasing daring and innovative work across theatre, contemporary dance, and physical performance. Praised as a “serene little venue” by The Scotsman and hailed by Three Weeks as “the Fringe as God intended,” Venue 13 has provided a platform for emerging artists from the UK, US, and Canada. Holding the same venue number for 34 consecutive years—longer than any other Fringe location, it celebrated 40 years as one of the longest-standing venues in the festival’s history in 2020, cementing its status as an essential part of the Edinburgh Fringe.
