On stage, a simple contraption of scaffold poles resembles a glass box. Within it, a woman stands still and silent.

A double-height room, plastic seats laid out on the flat and an approximately 18-inch-high stage.

Justin Butcher is giving what is arguably the finest one-man performance I have seen at this year’s Edinburgh Fringe. Scaramouche Jones is theatre-making and storytelling of the absolute highest quality. And the Bijou tent is barely a quarter full. What is going on?
