2019 Edinburgh Fringe
Moon: We Cannot Get Out
Two provincial louts perform grotty comedy sketches. There's something wrong with their venue though: it keeps trying to kill them. An immersive comedy-horror experience that's 'wonderfully warped' (**** Scotsman). Last year's debut hour was declared 'one of 2018's best-reviewed Fringe shows' (Comedy.co.uk) and 'the start of a cult comedy career, maybe more' **** (Chortle.co.uk). 'Moon are no ordinary sketch duo. Magical stuff' **** (List). Directed by Jordan Brookes (2017 Edinburgh Comedy Award nominee).
