Description

Brand-new musical comedy that was supposed to be about exploring life in a wheelchair... But Zac has something much eelier he'd like to talk about. This is the only show you will ever see that tries to compare the lived experience of a disabled person to the life cycle of a freshwater eel. A hilarious one-man musical, written and performed by Zachary Loram, will have you asking the question... so, how do eels have sex?

A really funny, entertaining show posing life's most important questions (still waiting on some clarity on eel reproduction, Zachary...) Great music too - excited to see what Zachary Loram does next!

Fun and quirky musical comedy, if I had one critique, thought it should have been longer! :)

Fun show for teens and adults, extremely talented writer/performer, thought-provoking, full of laughter. And tonight's performance enhanced by superb British Sign Language interpreter, added another fantastic dimension to the show. Loved it!

Probably one of the best ell-based musicals I've seen all day. Great fun watching a very talented musician and comedian giving a totally original show. Uplifting and grin-making. A show for all the family and its creator deserves to go far. Loved it

If you like Bo Burnham, Disney Film spoofs, self made fringe hidden gems, short comedies and unanswerable animal mysteries - you’ll know in the first five minutes you came to the right show. This little show lifted my spirits and inspired me so much. Don’t miss this!

A funny, lively look at life in a wheelchair. Zac has a lovely singing voice and you’ll be thoroughly entertained…..and he wrote it himself!
