Watch this space for fringe 2023
This August, Panmure House opens its doors once again for the annual Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
Panmure House has developed a reputation at the Fringe for theatre and spoken word shows that investigate the cultural phenomena that define our time. Interested in history? Have a keen interest in the Scottish Enlightenment? Keen to have your opinion heard amongst controversial debate? Perhaps you want to delve deep into financial theories... but also be entertained? At this year's Fringe at Panmure, there's bound to be something for you. This year we will be introducing a flagship tercentenary series of talks on Adam Smith by some of the leading scholars in the fields of Philosophy and Econmomics, new writing, and expanding our programme to include shows for younger audiences too. Watch this space as announcements are made in the coming months.

ADAM SMITH TERCENTENARY LECTURE SERIES
To mark and celebrate 300 years since the birth of Adam Smith, we have put together a very unique and special series of talks on the great man himself.
These free sessions will delivered by academics in the fields of Philosophy, Economics and Sociology and look at the formative parts of Smith's life, his views, his travels and his subsequent impact on those that followed from all over the globe.
These sessions will also not be academic in nature, rather aimed at everyone, allowing access the Smith, his life and his work in a non-traditional way allowing us to connect to Smith as a son of Edinburgh.
