The fifth Morecambe Fringe Festival gets underway this week.
Morecambe Fringe is a spoken word, theatre, poetry, cabaret and comedy festival platform based in the West End, with a wide range of performers taking part.
It all starts on Thursday (July 7) where the West End Players showcase their projects, as well as an excerpt from the John Clarke Memorial prize winning show, The Sisters, by Lin Robinson.
The rest of the Fringe is packed with acts making their way to the Edinburgh Fringe, with most of the shows taking place in the Playhouse in Yorkshire Street.
