Questions answered by Maggie Dickinson.
Q1: Aside from this Quickie, what is the most desperate marketing tactic you plan on using to get bums in seats this August? 280 chars
We’ll be taking the most cringe-inducing drama school games to the streets of Edinburgh and desperately trying to convince strangers to play Zip Zap Zop with us. If that fails, we’ll probably resort to trust falls. Stanislavski would be horrified.
Q2: If your show walked into a cocktail bar, what would it order?
A Long Island Iced Tea. What starts as a fun night out, quickly becomes a terrible idea, and by the end you’re questioning your life choices, crying in a smoking area and somehow having the time of your life all in one.
Q3: If all the shows running right now were at a massive Fringe house party, what is your show doing?
We are in the corner, hogging the karaoke station, singing only Broadway tunes. No classic hits, just the work of Rodgers and Hammerstein, Sondheim, and Lin Manuel Miranda. A few drinks in prepare for a one-woman rendition of ‘One Day More’ from Les Mis!
Q4: How will the audience remember you the morning after?
Our show is non-linear, the series of events happening backwards in time. So though you begin the show with us at our most tragic and feral – remember us how we left you: as young dreamers with hope for tomorrow. Funny, dramatic, and fantastically chaotic.
