Preview Show Success
On the evening of Wednesday 18th July, Porphyria was performed for the very first time. A sold-out Nottingham audience laughed, gasped and applauded at what was an extremely successful show.  Rehearsals will continue and there is still work to be done but, over two weeks from the start of our Edinburgh run, we are in an extremely good position.  Bring on the Fringe!!
