Last Chance Saloon brings Curse Of The Mummy To Edinburgh Festival

Curse Of The Mummy at Edinburgh Festival

From the creators of smash hits, Dracula: Sex, Sucking and Stardom and Frankenstein: UnBolted, comes Curse Of The Mummy – a tale from the darkest depths of Ancient Egypt.

Unwitting hero, Montana Jones, is on a quest for archaeological eminence; however a love-cursed Mummy and a Nazi spy threaten to destroy everything he hopes for! This ancient legend is unwrapped, revitalised and whipped up with mischievous musical mash-ups and outrageous humour in a frenetic hour of riotous theatre comedy.

Last Chance Saloon is a collaborative comic theatre company who specialise in twisting classic tales, whilst infusing them with their unique brand of character-baed comedy. Giving a nod to the golden age of British humour, mixed with farcical physical comedy and quirky musical parody, their aim is to allow audiences to escape from the doom and gloom of everyday life into a world of pure unadulterated enjoyment.

Using both shockingly catchy pop songs and obscure 80s ballads combined with an intriguing interpretation of world history, Last Chance Saloon takes us on a whirlwind adventure.

Curse Of The Mummy will be performed by Sam Dunham, Jack Faires, Jack Gogarty and directed by Simon Egerton. Suitable for ages 12+.

Curse Of The Mummy runs from 3 – 26 August 2017 at 19.30 (not 14th) at Just the Tonic (Big Cave).
