Fine Chisel Edinburgh Season 2012

Fine Chisel

Fine Chisel are a group of theatre makers and musicians based in the South East. This summer we are taking an exciting and ambitious three-show programme to the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, the largest arts festival in the world.

Edinburgh Season 2012
Midnight at the Boar’s Head
Unplugged
Firing Blanks
3 - 27 August, ZOO Venues - www.zoofestival.co.uk

Why should I help?

Edinburgh is a wonderful place to present theatre and connect with large, vibrant, diverse audiences. Also, crucially, it is an invaluable platform for showcasing our touring work. However, performing at the festival is an increasingly expensive and risky undertaking. We are confident that we can sell these shows well, through word of mouth, great reviews and a lot of hard work busking out on the streets. But, unfortunately, ticket sales alone are not enough to cover the costs of production, transport, accommodation, publicity and (most vitally) our brilliantly talented and committed performers.

What's in it for me?

To say thank you to our wonderful backers, we have devised a list of rewards (to the right of this page). And we hope that you're inspired by the work itself when you come to see the shows; we believe it is absolutely worthy of investment.

How much should I give?

Our costs for this summer season are in excess of £12,000. We are hoping to raise a third of this from the kind, generous donations of supporters like you. We are incredibly grateful for anything you can give.

How else can I help?

Please help us share this page - pass it on to friends, family, colleagues; tweet it, share it on facebook and talk about it in the pub. We are also planning a number of events in the lead up to August. Would you like to run a pub quiz or organise a gig? Please get in touch if you have any ideas.

How do I ask a question?

Please have a browse through our website if you’d like to know more about our current projects, and don’t hesitate to get in touch if you'd like to know more:

THANK YOU.

Thank you to everyone who has donated so far. Please keep them coming!

Here's a little video of us rehearsing one of our songs (a little sketchy, but it gives you an idea of the Fine Chisel Band): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysB5Z-7rsg8
