'Occasionally we come across an initiative which truly thrills us by exploring possibilities for our beloved city and its future. Michelle Browne’s ‘Mind the Gap’ project as part of the Fringe festival is one of these. Michelle is not just minding the gap, she’s making us aware of the chasm and showing us how to jump it.'
