Festival at the Edge 2025


NEWS!! NEWS!!

We are thrilled to announce that Gauri Raje will be performing at FatE this year. Gauri’s beguiling storytelling increasingly draws on interweaving her Indian heritage with her current home - Scotland. She has wowed FatE audiences with her delightful tales in the past, so we know you will be as delighted as we are to see her this summer.

Gauri is a Scottish Indian storyteller who tells stories in various languages including Urdu, Hindi, English and other Indian languages such as Gujarati and Marathi.

Her notable performance projects include directing 'East of the Sun, West of the Moon' a collection of stories for adults from around the world translated and told in 3 different Indian languages; 'Tales of Exile and Sanctuary', stories from around the world exploring themes of exile; ‘Tales of Ice and Fire’, which includes stories of two goddesses from Scotland and India; ‘Old Deccan Tales’, a performance with stories collected by the daughter of a British colonial officer which were told to her by her ayah and ‘Rewilding Cinderella’, a collaborative performance with 13 other storytellers, musicians & poets of Cinderella stories.

She is currently collaborating with Scottish musician Mairi Campbell on a performance of the Indian epic of ‘Mahabharata’ and its connections to rhythms and stories from Scotland.

Her recent under-publication book ‘Cooking Tales’ - innovations to recipes by and biographies of Asian women in 1950s has been awarded Scottish Asian Award under the Spirit of Scotland category.

FatE takes place in the beautiful grounds of Hopton Court Estate.
