The Herald Angel Awards (1)

Each week of the Festival period The Herald critics get together to decide which acts, performers or artists they think are deserving of recognition. The journalists make recommendations of who should receive a Herald Angel, and in the case of outstanding performance an Archangel may be presented. A final award - the Devil - is presented to those who demonstrate ‘the show must go on’ attitude when disaster strikes or survival in the face of adversity.

The first week's winners are:

  • Ren-Sa choreographed by Darren Johnston at Aurora Nova.
  • An Oak Tree by Tim Crouch, at the Traverse.
  • Faust directed by Janusz Wisniewski, and performed in Polish, at Assembly at George Street.
  • The Devil's Larder by Grid Iron, performed at Debenhams.
  • Absence and Presence a solo performed by Pandora 88's director, Andrew Dawson, at Aurora Nova.
  • Francis Bacon: Portraits and Heads at the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art
  • Balagan a variety performance at the Assembly @ St George's West.
  • The Picante Quartet won the Little Devil Award for overcoming adversity to get to the Fringe.
