Do the Thing: Choose Your Own Musical

Edinburgh 2026

Where is it set? Who is it about? What is the plot? You tell us. Get the fully improvised musical you want to see, brought to you by a cast of two (Tim Meredith and Simon Plotkin from Stellar Firma) and an orchestra of one (Ian Scott). Be careful what you wish for as things can and will get very silly indeed. 'Must see musical madness' ****½ (TheReviewsHub.com). 'A whale of a time' (Chortle.co.uk). 'Belly achingly funny... My only complaint is that it was too short' (VoiceMag.uk).
