Charlie has cystic fibrosis, a condition that causes a build-up of mucus. Lovely. But with a new girlfriend and a Wonder Drug called Kaftrio coming soon, what can stop him now? A rollicking course of intravenous antibiotics set to 80s bangers! VAULT Festival 2023 sell-out show which transferred immediately to King's Head Theatre. 'Brilliantly unique... There's something particularly novel in exploring mental health alongside a physical health condition' ***** (LiamODell.com). 'Makes us grateful to be alive' (ThePrickle.org). NB Also streamed online after the Fringe for access reasons - more information on show's website.
