More details
Boxman, a darkly comic one-man show written and performed by Edinburgh-born actor Ruaraidh Murray and directed by Tim Stark, will debut at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 2014.
This follows his previous sell-out successes at the Festival, with critically acclaimed shows Big Sean, Mikey and Me (2012) and Bath Time (2013), both of which enjoyed sell-out runs and five star reviews.
Boxman. His wife has left him. He's had a breakdown. Now he lives in a cardboard box in his front room. Sexy Mandy works on check out No.13 at 24hr ASDA. In pursuit of new love Boxman gets a job in ASDA on the wines and spirits aisle.
Problem: Boxman is a former alcoholic. Problem 2: Does Boxman love Mandy. Or is he just a stalker? Will love allow Boxman to overcome his addictions? Will he be able to fight off the bullying Jeff from the meat counter and win Mandy? And finally, will he ever be able to break out his cardboard box? If anyone can, Boxman can... can't he?
