Bitcoin Funded Silk Road Performance Earns a Residency at Trafalgar Studios

Last December news.Bitcoin.com reported on the theatrical version of people using the deep web in a play called the “Silk Road: How to Buy Drugs Online.” Since then the play got rave reviews after appearing at the world-famous Edinburgh Fringe and the Vault festival.

I can't stand almost all theatre, but I'd be intrigued to see how they framed this.

One day there will be epic works of fiction and non fiction built around the whole SR thing once enough of the truth comes out. I wonder if it ever will. It's truly one of the most bizarre and sprawling canvases of our time.

The tickets for the show at Trafalgar Studio, London, go for 23.5 -38 GBP (or roughly 31-50 USD) a piece. I've checked for availability and indeed almost 50% of the tickets for the upcoming week are sold out already. I don't live in London and unfortunately I couldn't find even a smallest piece of the play on YouTube. If anyone could help me with a link I'd appreciate it very much because I love good movies and plays, and if it's impossible to see the whole play, to see a part it would be great for me too.

I know they published "Silk Road (How to Buy Drugs Online) and Rules for Being a Man" by Alex Oates earlier this year, so maybe I'll consider buying one, if I fail in finding it online. )

Anyway, it's an interesting story, especially with that anonymous person donated funds towards the production.
