Edinburgh Fringe
The Edinburgh Festival Fringe (also referred to as The Fringe, Edinburgh Fringe, or Edinburgh Fringe Festival) is the world's largest arts and media festival, which in 2019 spanned 25 days and featured more than 59,600 performances of 3,841 different shows in 322 venues. Established in 1947 as an alternative to (and on the fringe of) the Edinburgh International Festival, it takes place in Edinburgh every August. The Edinburgh Festival Fringe has become a world-leading celebration of arts and culture, surpassed only by the Olympics and the World Cup in terms of global ticketed events.

LeChuck's Revenge
''Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge'' is an adventure game developed and published by LucasArts in 1991. A sequel to 1990's ''The Secret of Monkey Island'', it is the second game in the '' Monkey Island'' series. It was the sixth LucasArts game to use the SCUMM engine, and the first game to use the iMUSE sound system. In it, pirate Guybrush Threepwood searches for the legendary treasure of Big Whoop and again faces off against the pirate LeChuck, who is now a zombie. The development team for ''Monkey Island 2'' was largely the same as for ''The Secret of Monkey Island''. The project was led by Ron Gilbert, who was again joined by Tim Schafer and Dave Grossman.

''Monkey Island 2'' was followed by '' The Curse of Monkey Island'' in 1997; the third game in the series had to deal with the predecessor's ambiguous ending and to vaguely explain it. In 2022, a sixth game '' Return to Monkey Island'' was released, w ...
