Little Big StackProfessional company

60 minutesBraeburn
A charmingly dark, whimsically adult, joyously subversive, musical delight! Starring our titular character, Potty! A singing, talking, tap dancing, potted plant. When mysterious events begin to occur at Little Boo Boo's General Hospital, a ragtag bunch of dysfunctional nurses must pull together to save the day. What could be happening to all the missing children? Will the beautiful Miss Lacey ever find true love? Is there more to the nasty-looking Dr Acula than meets the eye? Potty The Plant is an hour of side-splitting, earwormy, musical fun, that begs the audience to not take anything too seriously.

About Little Big Stack

Potty the Plant is a dark musical comedy by Little Big Stack at Braeburn, Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2025. When mysterious events occur at Little Boo Boo's General Hospital, a ragtag group of dysfunctional nurses must pull together. The show stars Potty — a singing, talking, tap dancing, potted plant — alongside Miss Lacey and the suspicious Dr Acula. Earwormy original songs and a gleefully silly plot make up this 60-minute show. Suitable for audiences aged 16 and over, tickets start from £9. Includes audience participation, strong language and scenes of violence.

Why see this show?

A musical built around a tap-dancing houseplant and a suspicious doctor in a haunted hospital — gloriously daft in its ambition, with earwormy songs and a cheerful disregard for good taste. Tickets from £9.
