About this show
Eva’s falling through time. We join her as she struggles to piece together her reality following the crash that changed everything. Fractured is a story about memory, shame and grief. It’s about the little bad things that inexorably lead to the big bad thing. It’s about the magnetism of the past to anyone refusing to face it. Don’t miss the trippy, pacy Edinburgh Fringe debut play from Bill Cashmore Award-winning writer Shona Graham (Lyric Hammersmith, Old Vic Theatremakers, London Library).

What the reviewers said
We have captured 1 published review and 23 audience reviews for this show from the Edinburgh Festival Fringe’s own listing. The excerpts below are the reviewers’ words, not ours — follow each link for the full review.
Fractured is a complex and punchy contemporary drama which explores trauma, relationships and memory loss. Whilst this production has its flaws, it’s a great piece of new writing with a gripping concept.
