EDINBURGH FESTIVAL AUGUST 2013

We have a  play!!

See it in the Bar 
January 31 to Feb 3 and Feb  28 – March 3

Grim & Grisly Up  North
In August 2013  BLT is branching out and taking a production to the
Edinburgh Fringe  Festival. 
The play we have chosen  was first performed in San Francisco and  Los
Angeles in 2012 and this will be its  UK premier… 
“Very Still and Hard to  See” is an eerie excursion into the surreal and
the supernatural, combining  elements from modern ghost stories and Japanese
folk tales and centred on events  in and around a very strange hotel. Whilst
the building is under  construction, its architect, enters into a bizarre
contract with a mysterious  woman he meets deep beneath the hotel’s
foundations. Their pact leads to a  series of weird but strangely linked episodes
combining comedy with menace,  short on explanations but full of startling
implications which span the ensuing  years. Everyday  situations from riding in a
hotel elevator to preparing for a blind date take on  supernatural
qualities. The captivating characters encounter mystical forces  that collapse the
distance between the real and the surreal. This magical,  funny, and
sometimes mind-bending creation by acclaimed American playwright  Steve Yockey will
take you on an exhilarating, visceral  journey.

See it first in the bar in  January/February/March (31/01/13 to 03/02/13 &
28/02/13 to 03/03/13). The  setting for this production will require seating
in the bar to be limited so you  are advised to book early if you want to
be amongst the first to see this  brilliant new play.
