75 minutesGrand Hall
Blistering musicality, razor sharp political satire and spectacular masks collide as a prison band of dictators and traitors takes you on an exhilarating journey from tyranny to enlightenment. Touchy Trump, Polonium Putin, and Kim Jong Elvis join Beldon Haigh to provoke, satirise and entertain in this immersive, multimedia rock opera by acclaimed singer/songwriter Justin Skelton. Epic songs, bold storytelling, audience participation and raucous power ballads fuel this must-see show with raw grip on the zeitgeist. 'Political, angry, thought-provoking, always entertaining…' ***** (MustSeeTheatre.com). 'A rollicking rollercoaster show' ***** (LouderThanWar.com). ***** (TheEdinburghReporter.co.uk).
