Kelly Apter picks out the highlights for children and families from week two of the Fringe

BEOWULF The great Anglo-Saxon poem of Beowulf is given an intelligent makeover by Take Thou That, with a poignant added layer that might have you reaching for the tissues. See review, page 75. Underbelly Bristo Square, until 17 Aug, 11.40am, £10–£11 (£9–£10).

DICK AND DOM: DICK V DOM The children’s TV presenters prove they’ve still got it going on, perhaps even more so, in this dynamic and fun show where the audience is split in two. See review, page 75. Underbelly Bristo Square, until 12 Aug, 1pm, £12.50–£14.50 (£11.50–£13.50).

WILDE CREATURES Tall Stories, the team behind Fringe hits The Gruffalo and Room on the Broom presents its funny, moving and musical show inspired by Oscar Wilde’s tales. See review at list.co.uk/festival Pleasance Courtyard, until 26 Aug (not 9, 11,

13, 15, 17, 19, 21–23, 25), 2.50pm, £9–£11 (£8–£10).

JOHN HEGLEY: MORNING WORDSHIP

What a way to start the day, spending a joyous 45 minutes with one of Britain’s finest performance poets, as he shares his unique brand of witty, wonderful nonsense. See review, page 76. Pleasance Courtyard, until 19 Aug (not 8, 13–15), 10.30am, £10 (£8).

STICK BY ME Armed with colourful sticky tape, hundreds of lolly sticks and his own unique capacity to entertain, Andy Manley takes us on a joyfully funny journey filled with friendship, caring, loss and healing. See review at list. co.uk/festival Dance Base, until 26 Aug (not 13, 20), 12.30pm, £9 (£7).

DENIM: THE DENIM JUNIORS Prepare to be dazzled at this drag show for young audience, with wall-to-wall glitz and a great central message about gender politics and inclusivity. See review, page 76. Assembly George Square Gardens, until 19 Aug (not 13), 4.35pm, £9–£10 (£8–£9).
