Hot Mess is a new pop musical produced by Birmingham Hippodrome in association with Vicky Graham Productions. It imagines Earth and Humanity as a couple — a passionate romance that begins with harvested wheat and flourishing technology before descending into chaos. The show features Danielle Steers and Tobias Turley, and comes from the creative duo behind the musical 42 Balloons. It runs for 65 minutes at Pleasance Two during the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, and is suitable for audiences aged 12 and over.
Why see this show?
A pop musical with a wildly ambitious conceit — Earth and Humanity as a doomed love story — that balances comedy and genuine emotion. With strong performers and a Birmingham Hippodrome production behind it, this is a Fringe musical with real ambition.
