Edinburgh Fringe backs Amanda Knox show amid controversy
Edinburgh Fringe defends Amanda Knox’s one-woman show Cartwheel amid calls to cancel, stressing open-access and free expression; Knox says the show explores motherhood and truth-telling and honors Meredith Kercher’s memory, while Kercher’s family and critics argue it trivializes violence against women, backed by a petition with thousands of signatures; the venue and Fringe Society emphasize the decision lies with the artist and venue.
