00:00Hi, I'm digital reporter Amy Seddon, and a video has been circulating on Facebook
00:06showing a worker sabotaging posters for the Lancashire Fringe Festival, which
00:10runs between September the 25th and October the 9th. The video was shared by
00:15the festival's creator, Gary Cook, who captioned the post,
00:19Does anybody know who did this? You can take a look at the video next.
00:49But why is someone sabotaging Lancashire Fringe Festival posters?
01:17After sharing the video online, Gary soon got his answer. An artist at the
01:22festival used the stunt as a teaser for their own show, Suppress, which is on at
01:27the shop between Thursday and Sunday. Speaking to me after the mystery was
01:31solved, Gary said, I was shocked when I saw the video. It looked like someone
01:35from a council. Then I found out the person was an artist, and I kind of
01:39respected her creativity to promote her art show. Speaking more widely about
01:44Lancashire Fringe Festival, Gary added, This festival is a unique opportunity for
01:49the people of Preston to see world-class performances for free. I really hope
01:53people take a chance on it and see something unforgettable. Take a look at
01:58the Lancashire Post website to find out more about the Lancashire Fringe
02:01Festival.
