2015 Edinburgh Fringe
Thrones! The Musical
From the twisted minds of Baby Wants Candy. ***** (Scotsman). ***** (WhatsOnStage.com). ***** (Time Out). ***** (ThreeWeeks). Ridiculously handsome men battling White Walkers, ridiculously beautiful women riding fire-breathing dragons, and everyone trying to either kill or shag each other, Thrones! is a racy, gory, hilarious parody of HBO's phenomenally successful Game of Thrones. Whip-smart writing, a catchy original musical score, super-special special effects. Nudity? Maybe. Laughs? For sure. Brothers and sisters f*cking? No comment. Appropriate for 14+, if you don't mind explaining a few things to your 14-year-old after the show.
