Short Summary

Underscore Theatre Company is made up of 15 Trinity College students who want to bring their original play 'Actors' to the Edinburgh Festival Fringe this August. It ran in the DU Players drama society from he 10th to the 15th of March this year and was one of the most financially successful shows of the term. 
It's a comedy about the Tallaght Thespians, an amateur drama group who have an hour until the curtain goes up on their production of 'Hamlet' - but Hamlet is nowhere to be found, Rosencrantz hates Guildenstern, Ophelia's having a real life breakdown, and the director is a delusional egomaniac. Will the show be saved in time?
It will be if you help us raise the funds for the venue and publicity!
We're performing in Paradise at the Vault from the 12th to the 26th of August. Hope to see you there, but if we can't we would really appreciate your help!

What We Need & What You Get

Underscore need €3,147 in total. This will cover:

  • Venue rental (€1,924)
  • Flyers (€250)
  • Registration for the festival (€477)
  • Transportation of set (€496)
All travel and accommodation costs are being covered by the cast and crew.
We're offering perks for contributions of €10 or higher, ranging from weekly email updates by the company as they prepare for the Fringe to the chance to have a character in the play renamed for you!

The Impact

Every member of this company is incredibly enthusiastic and dying for the chance to perform at the Edinburgh Fringe. Several are students of theatre who are hoping that this production will increase their experience and help them further a career in the theatre industry. Others are incredibly talented performers and theatre makers who have a lot to offer the Fringe. Putting it simply, helping us get to the Fringe will help make our dreams come true!
