At Chortle's Fast Fringe

Here’s an extract from the Edinburgh Fringe show Mothman: A Romance Musical, written and performed by Alex Franklin and Nikola McMurtrie.

It's 1943, and the Nazis are winning. Luckily, America has one last trick up its sleeve – a super soldier! But uh oh! A moth snuck into the machine! It's mutating! It's becoming a... moth... man!?

The show is on at Underbelly, Cowgate at 21:50

It was recorded at Chortle's Fast Fringe – which is on at Pleasance Dome at 18:30 daily. Tickets here.
