During the summer of 2013, the British Council held its 9th Edinburgh Showcase, a biennial platform of contemporary UK theatre and dance, during the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. The programme included devised, visual and physical theatre; new writing; live art and installation; interactive and immersive theatre, as well as dance. 

A Jordanian delegation invited by the British Council, comprising key players in the Jordanian cultural sector, participated in the Edinburgh Showcase 2013. British Council Jordan is proud to be associated with the Festival, and to provide a platform for exchange and collaboration between creative practitioners from Jordan and the UK.
