Google Perfectly Normal Theatre LtdAbout the show
Perfectly Normal Theatre Ltd presents this action-packed satirical epic that ventures inside the mind of tech billionaire Elon Musk as he blasts off toward Mars. The man-boy sci-fi geek is deep in space when a call from the White House sends his universe into a spin. Starring Ben Whitehead, voice of Wallace in Wallace & Gromit, with Sarah Lawrie as the ship's computer, and featuring Donald Trump, Patrick Moore and Arthur C Clarke. Directed by Olivier Award nominated John Nicholson of Peepolykus, and written by David Morley. Running 70 minutes, suitable for ages 12 and over.
Why see this show?
A sharp, gleefully strange portrait of one of the most divisive figures of our time — sharp satire wrapped in genuine sci-fi spectacle. The Fringe rarely offers something this topical with this much theatrical craft behind it.
