I've been posting this about this weekend, so sorry for the lack of personal touch... Do come and say hello at either of the shows, or wander around with us on the sunday while we try to stuff fliers in peoples hands... We will likely look like a stag/ hen troupe... Unlike Ed and Al Indelicate, who will probably look like this. I know, i know...

THEN.... ON SUNDAY 23rd... COME!!!! IT'S ONLY FIVE POUNDS. At midnight...
Rock 'n' Roll! Death! Theology!
All are present and correct in this rollicking blend of showtunes, Thomas Aquinas, and the kind of experience you'd expect from a west end show about a biblical character whose name begins with a 'J'. The Book of Job: The Musical! is a comic tour de force that has Sold Out houses at The Cheltenham Literature Festival, Brighton’s Komedia, Trinity College Cambridge, Brighton Festival Fringe, London's Barons Court Theatre and venues across the country, garnering standing ovations and acclaim wherever it is seen. The Musical is to take it's first trip to the Edinburgh Fringe for a one-off, not to be missed show at the GRV on SUNDAY the 23rd August as part of the Five Pound Fringe.
The musical re-tells the biblical story of Job – that of a righteous and godly man royally screwed over by God for no particular reason – in an inspired blend of Andrew Lloyd Webber-style showtunes, dense liturgical theology and knockabout pythonesque comedy.
Writer Simon Indelicate is a singer and guitarist with cult indie band The Indelicates whose debut album ‘American Demo’ was released to acclaim last year, and who will be supporting Dresden Dolls frontwoman Amanda Palmer at the HMV Picturehouse on the saturday . The show also stars band-mate Julia Indelicate and My Name Is Red singer Chris Hodges. With the rest of the cast, they conjure a multi-million pound west end spectacle using little more than a guitar, some stage directions and the audience’s willing imagination.
Will Job curse God to his face? Will dashing angel with a dark side Satan win his bet? Does God really, as Karl Jung states in his Answer to Job (routledge, 1952, p.10) “Not care a button for any moral opinion nor recognise any form of ethics as binding”?
