Twonkey’s Double Bill 2016: Edinburgh Fringe
Twonkey’s Mumbo Jumbo Hotel
Sweet 3 (Grassmarket) / 9pm, 4th-28th August (not Tuesdays) / £6.50 (£5 conc.) /
Stop the hotel from being totally flattened to make way for a Frankie and Benny’s. Why is Drunk Welsh Anne's pistol missing from her garter belt? Why is the assistant manager hiding in the toilet? Why has the accountant been poisoned? Why does the cuckoo clock need fixing if it's already been fixed?
Enter the legendary oddball Twonkeyverse of Paul Vickers…
'He creates wonderlands of weird' **** (Kate Copstick, Scotsman); Malcolm Hardee Award nominee for Comic Originality; 'Completely bonkers charm' **** (Times); 'A challenging sexual concept' **** (Time Out); 'A joyous experience' **** (FringeGuru.com)
Twonkey’s Drive–in: Jennifer’s Robot Arm
Sweet 1 (Grassmarket) / 5.15pm, 4th-28th August (not Tuesdays) / Pay What You Want (or £5 guarantees entry) /
A matchbox melodrama about a girl whose delusions, while consorting with a demonic friend and a circular saw, cost her an arm. Her foolish, impotent father tries to make a replacement to no avail, whilst her very sexy mother Pam tries to comfort her through the trauma with relaxing stories.
Her dreams soon give birth to a trampish inventor, who offers her a robot arm at a devilish cost...
The debut play from Mr. Twonkey, a Fringe firebrand described by Mojo magazine as ‘a Da Vinci of invention’; top 20 out of 902 submissions in the Soho Theatre’s Verity Bargate Award (‘a bit like Ex Machina if it was set in Yorkshire’).
