Webber!
Rating
: ★★★★
Venue: Studio at theSpaceTriplex, Edinburgh 

Obsessed with becoming a Lord, Webber makes a Faustian pact with the eternal spirit of Ruining Everything... who looks suspiciously like Margaret Thatcher. Hilarious ear worms, laser-focused wit and no holds barred. See it before the cease and desist arrives! Impeccably well researched and somehow still incredibly funny, whilst remaining unafraid to speak truth to power, Grant Sharkey is a comedian, satirist and composer.

I'm not sure it was actually good but I did enjoy it.

Andrew Lloyd Webber - billed as a filthy rich and utterly useless old man in this hour long parody by Sharkey Grant. It is exactly as bad as it sounds… in the best way! 

If you are a particular fan of the Lord of Musical Theatre™️then this show might not be for you, as it isn't particularly kind on Andy, but it is funny as hell. 

While I won't be begging for a cast recording any time soon, 4 days later I'm still humming ‘FUCK THE MONEY OUT OF THE RAILWAYS’ and if that doesn't tell you everything you need to know then I'm not sure what else to say.

You can book tickets to see Webber!, here.
