PART OF DRAYTON ARMS THEATRE EDINBURGH PREVIEWS
Fragen Network is proud to present a preview evening of two brand new shows we are taking to the Edinburgh Fringe this summer:
ABHORRENT LITTLE SCROTUM Playing in the dark world of delusion and betrayal, Abhorrent Little Scrotum is a surreal, darkly comic cyber-thriller about fractured identity and broken friendship. After a personal collapse, hacker Jack retreats into the Experience, a hallucinatory digital mindscape, to rescue her best friend Dari from a consuming mental virus. Under the Experience, Jack tries to help Dari keep it together as her hunt for the truth turns into a dangerous obsession.
HUNGER Adapting one of the earliest stream-of-consciousness novels for the stage, Hunger is the portrait of a starving writer in an unforgiving city. Our nameless protagonist swings from ridiculous delusions of grandeur to fits of existential despair as he battles against his own self-sabotage and a world that cannot understand his gifts. Fragen Network utilize our signature blend of dream worlds, physical theatre and dark humour to create a raw, hypnotic exploration of desperation, obsession and the fragile line between genius and madness.
POST-SHOW Q&A We’ll be hosting a brief post-show Q&A as an informal opportunity to hear more about the making of our shows, the ideas behind them and the different creative process unique to each. It’s a chance to ask questions, share thoughts and continue the conversation beyond the curtain call. The Q&A will last for 30 minutes.

About the Theatre
The Drayton Arms was originally built in 1860 and then rebuilt to its current design in 1891.
Originally a function room the first theatrical use of the space was just after the war as a rehearsal room for many of the actors from the newly formed BBC TV who lived locally.
In 1985 The upstairs room at the Drayton Arms was then being used as a rehearsal studio for Webber Douglas Academy of Dramatic Art. Hilary Wood had recently been appointed head of acting and at her suggestion it was decided to turn the space into a theatre to give the students their own performance space in central London.
In the autumn of that year the studio was converted into a theatre with the space being designed by Hilary and Newton Jones the technical director of the Academy.
The Drayton Studio - as it was then - continued in use for the next twenty years, with twelve public performances running each year. Many of the students who presented their work there have gone on to real achievement in Theatre, Film and Television.
The Theatre was used as a rehearsal space on and off for a few years with couple of public performances for charity in 2009.
In late 2010 it was decided to get the theatre back up and running on a more permanent basis. Work was undertaken to upgrade the space and then in April 2011 the theatre licence was granted and the Drayton Arms Theatre was reopened as a professional fringe venue.
From Shakespeare to new plays, musicals to improv, classics to comedy, we are always showing something new.
