The show is described as hilarious, heartfelt and absurd, exploring themes of loyalty, nostalgia and knowing when to let go. The show involves audience participation and contains strong language.
Why see this show?
A free show built around a brilliantly mundane absurdist character — Eric Meat and his office world feel both utterly specific and universally recognisable. Hilarious and unexpectedly moving, it is a great way to spend an hour at the Fringe.
