About Yannick Trapman-O'Brien
Undersigned, by Yannick Trapman-O'Brien, is a deeply personal, psychological thriller for one. An invocation, a blindfold and a pointed discussion await each individual participant at Meet at Underbelly Box Office, Cowgate. The experience offers infinite possibilities and sharp choices; repeat visitors are forbidden and nothing said ever leaves. Management offers a deal: after your appointment, you can reclaim a portion of your ticket price — or add what the experience was worth. The show runs 60 minutes and is for ages 18 and over only.
Why see this show?
One of the Fringe's most unusual propositions — a solo appointment rather than a show. The pay-what-you-feel arrangement puts genuine skin in the game for both artist and audience, making this 60 minutes feel genuinely high-stakes.
