Edinburgh Fringe Fundraiser Proposal 

The Road to Skibbereen

Reaching for the stars with your trainers in the fridge
 

Exclusive Special Offer: Raise Funds for your cause while you watch a great show.

The Road to Skibbereen is an award-winning new play written by and featuring ex-Brookside actress, Angela Walsh.  It tells the warm, funny, brave story of Lianna, a young woman with a learning disability, and her devoted mother, Nora.  When Nora develops early-onset Alzheimer’s, we share Lianna’s battle to understand and cope as her role changes from the cared-for to the carer.

Based on events in her own family and her experiences in working with people with learning difficulties, Angela hopes the play will help to raise awareness of early-onset dementia and of the special challenges faced by those carers who are, themselves, in need of care.

Proposal

We would like to offer your organisation discount tickets at £5 each. These could then be sold-on to supporters at a higher price (top-price tickets are £9.50) in order to raise funds. An exclusive post-play discussion session with the writer, director and actors is included in the offer and will make the event an extra-special occasion for your group.
The show is at 2:15 pm every day from 10th to 25th August at C venues at Adam House on Chambers Street (Venue 34). The offer is available for any weekday performance (Mon-Fri) and you may book on one date or several to suit your membership. You may also book as many or as few tickets as you wish, space permitting, although the post-show discussions are available only to groups of 10+.

Bookings must be made by 31 July through the C venues box office, by phone on 0845 260 1234 (local rate call) or by email at boxoffice@cvenues.com.  Please address your request to Heather Young and use the promotion code SKIBOFFER.
