PERRET & LIMB LIVE

Trainspotting Feminism and Religion

Trainspotting, Feminism and Religion

Perret presents his one-man-show for the Edinburgh Fringe 2007, with poetry, songs and story-telling about the three subjects guaranteed to make everyone's eyes glaze over. See people you previously considered friends visibly pale and try to avoid you, the minute you enthusiastically espouse Trainspotting, Feminism or Religion.

Perret discovers the delights of feminism (as a man) and religion (as a non-believer). He does like trains but is ridiculed in the "rail enthusiast" fraternity for his inability to spot numbers.

Gimmusakiss

A musical comedy from Perret & Limb.

A mini-version was previewed in 5065 lift at Edinburgh 2003 to great acclaim, selling out its tiny venue, almost leading to a lift orgy, definitely leading to one audience member wetting herself with laughter in the unpleasantly confined space, and culminating in the entire audience dancing a conga across the Pleasance Courtyard.
