Evil is rising. Grab a mop. Multi award-winning comedy captains Kill the Beast present a new twisted tale inspired by 80s sci-fi, 90s gaming and cracking superhero theme tunes. From the brains behind The Boy Who Kicked Pigs and He Had Hairy Hands, Don't Wake The Damp is a non-stop, neon rollercoaster of shocks, shadows and shameless wigs. Original music, astounding projection and trademark dreadful faces - dare you find out what's waiting in the dark? 'A scorchingly talented young company' (Time Out). 'Incredibly, unbelievably funny' (List). 'A deliciously macabre affair' (Stage).

Natasha Tripney, The Stage, 5th August 2016Fringe: our pick of the bunch
Little ripples. That's how it starts. Little ripples getting bigger. And then suddenly you're eye to eye with a dinosaur. The Edinburgh Fringe is the T-Rex of arts festivals and it has a way of creeping up on you. For ages it's a faint shape on the horizon, reassuringly far away, and then it pounces.
