Having won the award for Best Comedy Play at GM Fringe and the Northern Soul Award for Fringe Production of the Year last year, Trollope returns to the Kings Arms tomorrow night, Sunday 20th October, with a new all female cast of Kasey Christian, Stephanie Riches and Pegeen Murphy.
The blurb for the show says it all really...
"Aaaannnndd.....Once upon a time in 1850, or something like that, there was a boy called Percy Trollope. Whilst in the womb, Percy contracted a condition called Infantus Adultus Maximus, which of course, as I'm sure you'll know, means he was born a fully grown man, culminating in the death of his mother. His grief-stricken father decided to take him to Mrs Scrunt's Home for Unwanted and Difficult Waifs, where he discovered a library full of books...
"Coupled with his hyperthymesia (the ability to remember everything that has ever happened), Percy memorised every fact that ever was from the Encyclopaedia Britannica. He then ran away and shacked up with HG Wells (writer of The Time Machine, obvs) who introduced him to his time travelling wheelchair.
"Percy then learned to travel through time, and met lots of famous historical figures from William Wordsworth and Sid Vicious to Hitler. Did you get that? Good.
Come to see this highly probable 'absurdist hour of pure joy' (North West End) and you are guaranteed to live happily ever after..."
Sound ace? Get down to the Kings Arms tomorrow night, if you like laughing...
