Pleasance Theatre Trust announces new shows for Edinburgh Fringe Festival
As part of its 40th anniversary celebration, the Pleasance Theatre Trust is set to enchant audiences with an impressive array of musical productions at this year’s Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
Among the standout offerings is Tit Swingers, a bold new Queer Punk Gig Musical that dives into the lives of Anne Bonney and Mary Read, the infamous polyamorous queer pirates.
Kafka’s Metamorphosis: The Musical! With Puppets! brings a fresh and surreal take on the classic tale, incorporating puppetry, shadow play, and unforgettable music.
Another highlight is The Emu War, a musical inspired by the true events of ex-military men turned farmers in post-WW1 Australia.
The Pleasance’s musical lineup is not just about new shows; it also celebrates the return of past successes and the diversity of musical theatre.
Sh!t-faced Shakespeare® makes a triumphant return with a unique rendition of Much Ado About Nothing, combining classical theatre with an element of unpredictability that has become a fan favourite.
The line up also includes productions like Ginger Johnson Blows Off! and Wuthering Shites, blending drag, comedy, and musical theatre.
