An absolutely glorious high-concept from poet Richard Marsh: his rhyming Bruce Willis is spot-on, but it's the concurrent love story that really pulls you in.
Achingly funny, rhyming retelling of classic (festive?) film Die Hard from Richard Marsh: Fringe First winner, BBC Audio Drama Best Comedy winner and New York cop (one of these is untrue). When gunmen seize an LA skyscraper, off-duty policeman John McClane is the hostages' only hope. This uplifting action romp (and unauthorised parody) pays affectionate tribute to the iconic 80s fan favourite. Essential viewing for Hans Gruber superfans and newcomers alike. Content warning: divorce, foot trauma, German terrorists. 'Lovely, witty, delicious' ***** (Independent on Dirty Great Love Story). 'Heartwarming' **** (Fest on Wingman).

Bin and Gone: Si Hawkins' End of Fringe Round-Up
Mums, puppets, posters, a Pope and some absolute garbage - our Live Ed looks back on his final week at the Fringe.
British Comedy Guide, 2nd September 2022Interview with Richard Marsh, actor and writer
"Background, upbringing and education combine toward the immense privilege involved in simply seeing the arts as a potential career. We desperately need people from all sorts of different backgrounds going into the arts. That's only got harder under this government."
Tom Inniss, Voice Magazine, 23rd July 2022Performances
