In 1995, in order to continue developing the work it was supporting on the Fringe, the Pleasance built two theatres in Islington, North London. As a registered charity in England, Wales and Scotland, The Pleasance Theatre Trust has created a powerful platform from which we can discover, nurture and support the best new talent from around the world. Promoters, theatre and festival managers from throughout the UK and around the world come to the Pleasance looking for productions. The Pleasance receives no public subsidy and all revenue generated is reinvested back into future festivals and the London development programme. The Pleasance has a spirit of artistic possibility, of youthful enterprise (whatever your age), of good humour and of celebration. The Pleasance embraces new ideas and invention. With 26 performing spaces in Edinburgh and London, ranging from 50 – 750 seats, the Pleasance has been able to present artists at the pinnacle of their careers alongside those just beginning. I was 18 when I first came to the Pleasance, they gave me a break through “the Charlie Comedy Reserve. Without the Pleasance finding ways to bring new talent to the Fringe, the festival wouldn’t be quite the same. JACK WHITEHALL ” • THE PLEASANCE COURTYARD • Probably the most famous venue in Edinburgh, for many the Pleasance Courtyard is the very heart of the Fringe and few people leave the city without at least one visit, whether it be for theatre, comedy, children’s shows, or simply to take in the irresistible atmosphere. Surrounding the famous cobbled squares and overlooking the picturesque Arthur’s Seat, the Courtyard houses 17 performance spaces, 6 bars and 3 cafés. Open from 10am until late into the night, it is one of the only venues to offer the true festival day out. On any given day visitors are likely to be brushing shoulders with a mix of journalists, broadcasters, up- and-coming performers and world-famous stars, whilst they consider seeing one of the 200 shows that may take place each day. • THE PLEASANCE DOME • The Pleasance Dome opened in 2000 and since that time it has inspired the arrival and growth of other venues in Bristo Square. This is now the central hub of the entire Festival. The Dome’s 5 performance spaces surround a central atrium and palm court. As evening falls the space is transformed into one of the festival’s busiest nightspots, with live shows, music, food and drink keeping the crowds buzzing until 5am. The Dome is also home to the infamous Brooke’s Club, the original VIP bar of the festival. Performers, press and industry professionals share the exclusive membership, with the stars of tomorrow doing deals over a beer and game of pool. • BE INSPIRED... • Artist’s impression of Pleasance Islington To build on their great success, and ensure that they can continue to support, encourage and develop the work and skills of even more young people, the Pleasance continues to invest. In 2010 the Pleasance opened a creative workspace next door to the theatre to develop the work of the local community in Islington and Edinburgh, the Fringe, London and regional theatre, and the arts industry nationwide. • CHARLIE HARTILL SPECIAL RESERVE • Established in 2004 in memory of Charlie Hartill, this designated fund created by the Pleasance provides complete financial support to artists and companies wishing to perform at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. 11 years on, this fund has directly supported 10 theatre companies including PIT and Invertigo alongside 44 new comedians, including Jack Whitehall, BAFTA winner Daniel Rigby, 2014 Comedy Award winner John Kearns, Daniel Simonsen and Holly Walsh. Since it started, this fund has provided over £115,000 worth of subsidy for both productions and individual artists. • YOUNG PLEASANCE • Right at the very heart of the Trust is our award winning theatre company The Young Pleasance. Founded in 1995 dedicated to offering dynamic, excellent and inclusive theatrical opportunities to young people up to the age of 21. It is based at the Pleasance Islington where the company regularly performs, together with an annual production at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Children from the local community and throughout London, participate in and experience theatre-making of the highest professional standards through workshops, projects and large-scale productions. Young Pleasance annually sponsors young people, who otherwise would be unable to take part, to rehearse and perform in Edinburgh. Young Pleasance is extraordinary “ BRITISH THEATRE GUIDE ” • SOME PLEASANCE HIGHLIGHTS • 1998 • David Baddiel • Jason Byrne 2010 1985 • Paul Merton 2009 • Peter Kay • Bo Burnham • The Bodgers : Edinburgh 1999 • Kevin Bridges : • English Shakespeare Company • National Theatre of Scotland Comedy Award Nominee Edinburgh Comedy Award • The Mighty Boosh Best Newcomer Nominee (Beautiful Burnout) : • Omid Djalili • Gecko Theatre (The “All of the ingredients of a • Rich Hall Overcoat) knock-out hit” 1986 1997 • The Steven Berkoff Company HHHH THE INDEPENDENT • Alistair McGowan • Greg Davis • Nola Rae MBE & John Mowat 2008 • Mitchell & Webb • Hoipolloi 2000 • Tim Minchin • Stefan Golaszewski Speaks 1987 • Brendon Burns About The Girl He Once Loved : 2011 • Andy Parsons Fringe First Winner • Mark Steel 1996 • Julian Sands, directed by • Mackenzie Crook John Malkovich (A Celebration • Mervyn Stutter • Armstrong & Miller : • Puppetry of the Penis of Harold Pinter) : Edinburgh Comedy Award 2007 • Steven Berkoff (Oedipus) : Best Comedy Show Nominee 1988 • Les Enfants Terribles “The bravest, most exciting and • The League of Gentlemen : 2001 (The Terrible Infants) : moving Greek tragedy in years” • Miles and Millner Winner of the Edinburgh “Captivating” THE STAGE HHHH SUNDAY TIMES • Dead Ringers • Jo Brand Comedy Award Best Show • NIE : • Adam Hills “The exceptional ensemble • Ross Noble combines exquisite, highly • Dara Ó Briain physical acting and wonderfully 2012 1989 1995 • Joan Rivers integrated live music...” • The Boy With Tape on His Face • Kneehigh Theatre THE DAILY TELEGRAPH • The Reduced Shakespeare • Dylan Moran • The Two Worlds of Charlie F Company • Tim Vine • Miriam Margolyes • Arthur Smith & Caroline Quentin (The Live Bedshow): 2002 Edinburgh Comedy Award 1994 2006 Best Comedy Show Nominee • Miranda Hart 2013 • Russell Kane • Cambridge Footlights • Graham Norton • Alan Carr • Simon Amstell • BLAM : • Sean Lock & Bill Bailey HHHHH EDINBURGH EVENING NEWS, THE SCOTSMAN, 1990 2003 THE INDEPENDENT, THE LIST, BRITISH THEATRE GUIDE 1993 • John Bishop 2005 • Theatre de Complicite • Michael McIntyre • Steve Coogan & Frank Skinner • Al Murray • Jason Manford • Harry Hill • Jimmy Carr • Rhod Gilbert : Edinburgh • Jenny Éclair • Reginald D Hunter Comedy Award Best 2014 1991 Newcomer Nominee Pleasance celebrates 30 years • We Are Klang on the Edinburgh Festival Fringe • Paines Plough : 1992 “The lifeblood of the UK’s theatre ecosystem” THE • Dum Show: Coogan, Herring, 2004 GUARDIAN Lee, Marber & Munnery • Dillie Keane • Russell Howard • Tim Key • AWARDS • In the last 30 years, the Pleasance has hosted the prestigious Edinburgh Comedy Award (formerly the Perrier Award) 16 times and hosted over 50 Fringe First winning plays.

In fact, when I first heard of Holocaust deniers, I laughed and dismissed them as not worthy of serious analysis. Then I looked more closely and I changed my mind.
