Bathing Beauty on Calton Hill

Aug 19, 2010

Blowing bubbles: Fringe festival actress Isabel Hertaeg takes a bath with her rubber ducks on Calton Hill to promote her Fringe show “La Petite Mort”, where rubber ducks play a key role.

An original idea in collaboration with the actress. The photocall, which I press managed as an open press invitation to the daily media, was arranged mostly by me, including liaison with Edinburgh Council for kind permission to use Calton Hill for this somewhat surreal but fun and rewarding stunt.

Pictures for Isabel Hertaeg / theatrical promoter Green Room Presents, and wired to the Scottish daily press. Published in the Daily Record and other newspapers today, and more publications to follow….

Burlesquers and Cabaret Artists ON Scott Monument

Burlesque girls and cabaret performers of all types posing ON Scott Monument – not beside it but ON it.

This photocall was PR directed by me, with my original idea of getting the finest cabaret artists from the Edinburgh Fringe’s specialist cabaret venue Ghillie Dhu perched on what is possibly Edinburgh’s most iconic landmark – the Scott Monument.

By special permission from Edinburgh council and pictures for Pleasance Ghillie Dhu.
Picture in The Scotsman and other daily newspapers and websites today.
