Black Blues Brothers: Let's Twist Again!

A twist and rock’n’roll jukebox, a train station and lots of acrobatics!

Fringe favourites the Black Blues Brothers return with their electrifying, family-friendly show. Having wowed over 65,000 Fringe spectators, they are back at McEwan Hall, ready to amaze audiences once again.

Set in a smoky train station and driven by an unforgettable rock ’n’ roll soundtrack, expect jaw-dropping acrobatics, towering human pyramids, and gravity-defying stunts. Featuring iconic music by Glenn Miller, Elvis Presley, and Aretha Franklin, this is the ultimate all-ages experience. After five smash-hit Fringe seasons and appearances at the Royal Variety Show and the Moulin Rouge, this feel-good phenomenon is truly unmissable.
