About Baby Wants Candy
Baby Wants Candy is an improvised musical comedy ensemble performing at Studio One as part of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. The format is simple: audiences shout out a title, and the company immediately creates a full musical around it on the spot. Recent audience-generated titles have included Sweeney Toddler and Tinder in the Animal Kingdom. The show involves audience participation and contains strong language and scenes of a sexual nature. It runs for 60 minutes and is suitable for audiences aged 14 and over. Tickets start at £13.
Why see this show?
You give the title, they make the musical — right there, in the room. It is completely unrepeatable, and the resulting shows have a chaotic, joyful energy that no scripted production can match.
