June 2014 It's There!

Our Kickstarter online crowd funding appeal has reached its target of £16,000. This brilliant show of support means that Factor 9 will now be part of Fringe 2014. We have recently completed the official Fringe registration and will advise all dates and times when these are confirmed. We are already looking to marketing the show, with further support from individuals and organisations such as The Haemophilia Society, Haemophilia Scotland & Haemophilia Wales. This is our first 'crowd funding' attempt and we have been overwhelmed by the support shown to ensure the production has an extended life, taking its story to a wider public and looking to the Fringe as a platform to further promote the production both in the UK and beyond. In this year when the Penrose Inquiry will report its findings on infected blood products, it is fitting that the play should be a part of the festival in the city of Scotland's government. We extend our thanks to John Martin for setting up the Kickstarter appeal and again to all those who contributed. The appeal closed on May 9 and all donations will go towards the rehearsal, production, wages, venue costs, marketing, accommodation, administration, and to all costs associated with the preparation and execution of our August run at the Fringe.
