Charles II: Living Libido Loca is a free musical comedy presented by Old'n'Dead Productions and Edinburgh Rep Company at CC Blooms as part of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. The show is a comedic walk through the English restoration period: from Oliver Cromwell to the great plague of 1665, from the Fire of London to the death of Charles II. Think adult Horrible Histories meets Blackadder — it features comedy, singing and claims to be surprisingly accurate. The show runs for 60 minutes and is suitable for ages 14 and above. Audience participation is involved and it contains scenes of a sexual nature and strong language.
Why see this show?
A raucous free musical that takes history seriously enough to get the facts right but loosely enough to have a very good time doing it. Great for anyone who likes their period drama with a healthy dose of bawdiness.
