Anna Piper Scott has told how she 'struggled' to get back replies from management companies when planning her fist Edinburgh run.
A comedian who performed at this year’s Edinburgh Fringe has said she faced barriers to taking part as a result of being trans.
Miss Scott said: “Somehow we all get less coverage than a lonely old man doing his second ever open-mic gig. I can’t imagine what I could do if I was as ‘silenced’ as Graham Linehan.” “We are just like everyone else, we’re members of the general public and we have ideas about everything.”
