Does Edinburgh Want a Festival?
On St Andrew 's Day, John Parry talks to city fathers and to two directors of the International Festival, John Drummond and Frank Dunlop, about the uneasy marriage between the Scottish capital and its biggest money-spinner. Is the Festival 'elitist and out of touch' with the people of Edinburgh? Is the city's attitude to its most famous event 'apathetic and parsimonious'? May the time have come, even, for a divorce?
