About the show
Transfers is a newly devised drama by Arbery Theatre, performed at Space 2 as part of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. The show follows eight very different people in eight very different situations, exploring how £500 passes between them — willingly or violently, as a gift, through blackmail, as payment for drugs, or lost entirely. In cash or online. In someone's home, a nightclub, on the street, in a theatre. The 50-minute show is rated 14+ and contains strong language, scenes of violence, strobe lighting and potentially distressing themes.
Why see this show?
A sharp, kaleidoscopic portrait of money and the lives it touches — comedy, tragedy and the mundane all folded together in a tightly constructed devised piece. Fifty minutes that feel much bigger than they are.
