ANNA IN BETWEEN - ABSOLUT FRINGE

description

Pillowtalk Theatre is a company lead by the Artistic Director Rosemary McKenna which has staged several productions in the last year - these include The Living End, Bedbound and Heroin(e) for Breakfast'.

Anna in Between is a brand new play with songs devised by James Hickson, Rosemary Mckenna, Dan Colley, composer and musician Jane Deasy and an incredible cast of up and coming starlets.  It will be performed as part of ABSOLUT Fringe in September. We wouldn't ask if we didn't think this project was well worth funding!

As a new company we are completely unfunded, and so we are depending on you, the loving public to help us out in anyway you can. Whether it's a donation of €5 or €50 we will be eternally indebted to you and we only have one week on Fund it to reach our target! We are even grateful you've read down this far.

With show costs coming in at around €5,000 all your kind donations would be going towards getting costumes so the actors don't have to do the show naked and buying props and instruments so the actors and musicians don't have to mime... again.... Everyone on this project is working for free they're so passionate about it and it's with your help that their ambitious project can be realised!

What's the Show about?

As good fortune breeds great expectation, so great expectation breeds disappointment. This is the surreal and absurd world of Anna in Between. Here, Anna finds herself fighting for something she never knew she wanted – her life. But actions have consequences and sometimes there is no going back. Follow us on a blackly-comic, musical journey into the darkest recesses of her mind, where everything is laid bare, and a decision must be made. This is the debut of PillowTalk Theatre at ABSOLUT Fringe – described as a young company with “eye-blinking competence, intelligence and maturity” – Emer O’Kelly
