Description

The musical history lesson that no one asked for but everyone needs! A Play, A Pie and A Pint shares the true(ish) story of our nation: its past, present and future, its triumphs and failures, all told by a figure who has seen it all... Scotland’s greatest invention and storyteller, The Toilet! From award-winning duo Noisemaker, Scots is an irreverent and rousing musical journey through the history of Scotland, that replays some of our nation’s most iconic (and forgotten) stories to answer the fundamental question: What makes a country? Ticket includes a pie and a pint. Part of MadeInScotlandShowcase.com.

SCOTS (****)
A proud Scottish toilet spills forth a cast that celebrates the history of Scotland with cheery songs and whimsical testimonies to the achievements of Scottish women, and Scottish liberalism. The talented cast takes on a huge array of characters easily to maintain the fun throughout. The first character out of the toilet is that toilet itself played by a tall, lean guy doing a great imitation of Jim Carey as he lauds Scottish plumbing and attends to the rest of the cast.


This is the 23rd most enjoyable of the 122 shows I have seen so far at the Fringe this year. I hope to see almost 200.
