Where: Underbelly Cowgate, 66 Cowgate EH1 1JX (Belly Button)
When: 4th to the 28th August 2022 | 6:55pm to 7:55pm
With not a zombie in sight, we are taken into a sanctuary of "normality" while the outside world rots...
In a secure flat, complete with a TV, a sound system, video games and enough alcohol to host a Scottish wedding, we meet R
ob, an ill-mannered, politically incorrect Scottish lad and Paul, a very chirpy, kind-hearted Northerner. The arrival of battle-hardened Penelope disrupts the status quo as she challenges their way of life whilst seeking relative comfort and safety after living out in the wild of a zombie apocalypse. Written by Finlay Bain
Directed by Jordan Murphy
“It’s pretty impressive how many subtle themes are cleverly sewn into the plot, a testament to the strong writing that makes Living a Little so much more than an offbeat comedy. This is a fresh and brave exploration of friendship which is both touching and hilarious in equal measure, it’s well written and beautifully performed.” - Theatre Weekly ★★★★★
“Led by Murphy's clear vision for the show, the company tells an acutely hilarious and socially aware story encompassing true friendship, eccentric coping methods, and a broader reflection on humanity” - Broadway World ★★★★
