Not going to lie, when I first started watching this I was like, "what on earth am I watching" and by the end I was like, "OF COURSE I am watching this."
This is a brilliant show, and the trio did such an amazing job performing the story. Very creative, imaginative and a shit load of fun. Now if you don't mind, im going back to 1972.

A very silly tale combing time travel, the art world and David Bowie. What’s not to like? It’s all great fun.

Well, what fun we had watching three blokes travel through time to the soundtrack of Bowie and Bolan. My life flashed before me as the projections ran the gamut from the present day back to 1972. The story was daft, the music was memorable, the acting acceptable but mostly it was fun, it was the Fringe.

Time travelling murder mystery played out to the sound track of Bowie and Bolan by a talented cast enjoying the amusing script and fun choreography. Deserves your support.
