Stitch in Time: A Knitting Cabaret
Melanie Gall Presents 2—MTYP – Mainstage
When you see women, mothers and daughters flocking to a venue proudly carrying their knitting, you know a Melanie Gall show is in the air. Ms. Gall is a Fringe favourite and known knitting enthusiast; having produced various shows for our Fringe fans with a knitting theme throughout the years.
She managed to source 100 songs with a knitting theme! Quite amazing! She treats us to some of these songs of WWI and WWII popularity, when women and some boys, girls and men were encouraged to do their duty by knitting for the troops. With these songs she has touching and beautiful videos of these people and sheet music covers, which are an enriching accompaniment.
It’s important to mention you do not have to be a knitter to love this, as I can attest. It was heartwarming during Melanie’s preshow interactive talk, to hear tales of the friendships, knitting circles and new hobbyists born at her shows. A wonderful experience all round!
