The Apex City Hotel, situated right below the Castle in the heart of the
Old Town in the busy and historic Grassmarket, is a new 4 star hotel
that will open this spring. This hotel will also
have nice restaurants and bars that audience members can frequent before
and after the shows.
Apex Hotels'
contemporary design are ideally suited as a venue, because they can be
defined as Scotland's first 'art hotels.' The management of this
new and developing hotel group, which has come into being in Scotland,
have the very clear vision of a hotel group with a difference, committed
to the patronage of contemporary art and theatre. Throughout the
hotel, including in the rooms themselves, they plan to feature the
history of the Edinburgh Festival and the Fringe by displaying portions
of the Demarco Archives. With the aid of the Apex Hotels, the
Demarco European Arts Foundation, and BlinkRed (visual arts), we hope to
convert these two new spaces into an exciting and busy venue.
This hotel will provide us with two new spaces that we are currently
calling Theatre #1 and Theatre #2.
Another
addition we are working on is an Actors Club: a private space for actors
in Rocket Venues to relax and meet each other, get a drink, get on-line,
copy a five star review, or send a fax. We will also continue to
create an actor's community by allowing Rocket Venue actors to see all
the other shows in Rocket Venues on a standby basis.*
