Six friends gather in a remote cabin for a weekend away, hoping to reconnect and escape the noise of everyday life. But as night falls, something shifts. One by one, a friend disappears not just from the room, but from memory itself. Relationships subtly rewrite, shared histories distort and the group’s reality begins to fracture and the only person who realises it is the next one to go. As paranoia and grief intertwine, the cabin becomes a space where truth feels fragile and loyalty is tested. Cabin is an intimate, unsettling exploration of friendship, and truth.

About Daffodils

Cabin is a new horror and new writing piece from Daffodils, a student and youth company performing at Stephenson Theatre as part of Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Six friends gather in a remote cabin for a weekend away, hoping to reconnect and escape everyday life. As night falls, one by one a friend disappears — not just from the room, but from memory itself. Relationships subtly rewrite, shared histories distort and the group's reality begins to fracture. An intimate, unsettling exploration of friendship and truth, the show runs 50 minutes and is suitable for audiences aged 14 and over.

Why see this show?

An intimate horror piece that turns paranoia and grief into something genuinely unsettling. The premise — disappearing not just from the room but from memory — is a clever and fresh take on the genre.
