The Dead Parrot Collective return to the Fringe with their most ambitious project to date: Wizards of Armillaria: The Death of Magic. As war rages across the fantasy kingdom of Armillaria and magic itself fades, five hapless rogues launch a desperate heist to save the world. Standing in their way are scheming nobles, arcane assassins, a box of goblins, and each other. The collective set out to prove that even grand tales can be told on a meagre budget.
Why see this show?
Riotous ensemble comedy from a homegrown Edinburgh collective, proving that imagination outspends budget every time. Fantasy adventure with genuine wit — a fun choice for anyone who enjoys storytelling with heart and cheek.
