Fringe Venue 67
The deli with its own Fringe theatre.
Every August the gift room and book shop convert into a 70-seat theatre. Music, theatre and wine tastings, 18 shows in 2026, and the Chairman on the bill with his own band. No other deli on earth has this.
On the bill, 2026
Three of the eighteen.
Philip Contini & His Be Happy Band
The Chairman himself, singing the songs the shop has hummed for ninety years.
Appassionato
Philip Contini & Anne Evans: Tosti and Neapolitan song, up close.
Louis de Bernières
The Captain Corelli’s Mandolin author, in the room above the cheese counter.
Why it works
Seventy seats. One interval bar: the whole deli.
Dinner from the Caffè Bar, a glass from the cellar, a show upstairs, then the shop on the way out. August at Elm Row is the whole house in one evening.
