Kit Bromovsky Productions present The Bookies. Two Edinburgh bookies feel the pressure of signing customers up for online betting accounts, signing their own jobs away in the process. They come up with a plan to fight back. But a mountaineer from Mount Everest gets in their way. 'Fast and witty production' **** (Scotsman). **** (TheWeeReview.co.uk). 'Sharp, cynical comedy' (Stage). 'Riotously funny play... well worth attending for a fun night out' (Skinny).

Edinburgh Interview: Joe McCann on The Bookies

"The Bookies isn't just another black comedy at the Fringe. It's a window into a world that's often overlooked in theatre - the gritty reality of working-class life".
