Description

Worm is quite happy being just that: a worm. However, there is one thing missing – this worm wants teeth. And you, yes you, are going to help it get them! As you move through the forest, you will meet Worm's friends (and enemies), play games, sing songs, and talk through both your own and Worm's anxieties, doubts, and feelings. In the end, it is up to you – will you help Worm get the teeth it wants? Or will you take things a step further and help it achieve self-acceptance?

Brilliant! Original, funny, thought provoking and moving. The actors and writing all outstanding! Alex Hess as the Worm takes the audience on a journey that they will not forget. Run don’t walk to grab tickets to this performance with only two nights left it will surely sell out. The Paradise at the Vault is a fabulous venue that lends a fun and intimate atmosphere.
Can’t wait to see what this troupe does next! @Smak_Productions

By far the best show I’ve seen at the fringe, and maybe the best show I’ve ever seen? A wonderfully woven story brought to life by such a joyous ensemble, which we the audience had been recruited into very quickly but with such welcoming care that it wasn’t “oh, I need to join in now?” and was more “oh of course I’ll help you build some teeth, why wouldn’t I?”
I’m looking forward to whatever form Worm Teeth takes post-fringe because it feels like something really special that I got to experience at the beginning of its life and this story and the company behind it are on their way to do wonderful and wondrous things.

I went into it knowing nothing besides the title and had a feeling it would be the weirdest thing I’ve seen thus far and was not disappointed. The cast was entertaining and had an incredible knack for timing and stage presence. The foley artist of sorts that was managing an accordion, a kalimba and various objects that were used to create whimsy deserves her flowers. I loved all the unique personas and the audience interaction felt organic. I have been convinced. Give that worm her bloody teeth!!! Or maybe some worm therapy…

First met the cast, they were nice, confident and very organised. Once the show started they were incredible, the acting was outstanding and they never broke character. Not just that they were hilarious by coming up with puns and interacting with the audience. Portrayal for each and every character should be given an oscar. I loved every moment of their performance and I completely recommend for people who love a good laugh. Incredible!

I taught a worm that you can use a walking stick to do violence, not just your teeth. 10/10 highly recommend
