A week before we were due to open in Edinburgh our leading man, James Chadburn, was rushed to hospital. James Paul Taylor ( who previously appeared at the ed fringe in the Stage Award nominated Face In The Crowd) stepped in for the shows opening week. Thankfully after two weeks James Chadburn was released from hospital and given the all clear to return. He returned to the role on Sunday 12th . Though we were able to have two days rehearsals, as is the nature of fringe, he was unable to perform in the space prior to that show. As he was given knew medicine, it has also taken a few days for this to balance and to adjust to some of the side effects. Farce is a tough genre to perform and as James Chadburn hasn't had the normal previews to adjust his performance and adapt, we have decided for his first few performance to show our appreciation to the audience with an exclusive ticket offer. Anyone who presents a ticket from his opening shows up to 12th to 16th august can received two comps to a performance later in the run
