About the show
Jellyfish is a new writing dark comedy by Blah Blah Productions, performed at Bluebell during the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Twin sisters Nova and T have just turned 100 years old — but still look 30. For one day only they host an exclusive interview revealing the secrets of their eternal youth: early alarms, red-light therapy, shock treatments, Botox, blood transfusions, supplements, no friends and no fun. As the interviewer turns to their most controversial procedure, public scrutiny grows, tensions rise, secrets surface and their perfect system begins to unravel. The show runs for 60 minutes, tickets from £9, and is suitable for ages 16 and over.
Why see this show?
A deliciously unsettling dystopian comedy about the lengths people go to avoid ageing. Sharp, darkly funny, and building to a genuinely tense finale — this is new writing with something to say.
