Jewish comedian Rachel Creeger says she has new venue for Edinburgh Fringe show

Jewish comedian Rachel Creeger will perform her show, 'Ultimate Jewish Mother', at this year's Edinburgh Fringe after her original venue cancelled her slot. She has secured new locations at The Big Tent at Hoots @ Nicolson Square Gardens and Dirty Martini at Le Monde, allowing her show to remain unticketed and accessible to all. Creeger expressed gratitude for the support she received following the cancellation, which she attributes to concerns raised by staff, graffiti, and a mistaken claim about a vigil during her previous performance. She emphasized that her show is not political and highlighted the rise in antisemitism faced by Jewish comedians in recent years. The Fringe Society clarified it does not control venue programming, while Police Scotland reported no concerns regarding Creeger's show.
