Podcast: Getting All Hung Up With Friction Burn

Precipice Theatre talk about their Camden Fringe play Friction Burn

This week we were joined by three of the team behind Friction Burn, which is playing at The Hope Theatre from 20 August as part of Camden Fringe.

Those three were Sophie Faurie, who wrote and will be acting in her play, Leah Bonaventura, who directs, and Grace Bown, who co-composd the music with Sophie and plays fiddle in the show.

We chat about the play and how the theme of suicide developed without Sophie realising, how music can play an important part within a show without it actually being a musical, and whether there is the risk of tripping over the audiences feet in the tight space that is The Hope Theatre.

Friction Burn plays at The Hope Theatre from 20 – 23 August, with tickets available ⁠here⁠. The show will also be playing at The Space in November, more info ⁠here⁠.

Friction Burn

The Hope Theatre

A couple are entangled in the habit of manipulative love games, and try to have an honest conversation in an effort to save their relationship – currently hanging on by a thread.
Do you really know the person you want to tie yourself to forever?

Funny, entertaining and very clever, ‘Friction Burn’ is an absurd and dark comedy.

The Hope Theatre 20 – 23 August, tickets available ⁠here⁠.
The Space, 21 – 25 November, tickets available ⁠here⁠.
