The Plastic Cowboys are not really plastic and they're not
really cowboys. What they are in fact is a sketch-show trio who
are returning to Edinburgh for the first time since 2002.

This year they play an array of diverse characters who are
plunged into a universe of dark, peverse and often horrific situations.
This is a strange land in which sci-fi obsession is mixed with
more than a shot of Jack Daniels; a place where the hunt is on
for the double murderer of Kris Akabusi and Terry Nutkins; where
the mercy killing of an eight year old with a splinter is the
norm and where kids try their latest "karate" moves
in the playground with devastating results. Mix this with musical
style songs and singing of the very highest quality and the result
is something truly terrifying and just plain stupid.
