Terrible Wonderful Adaptations

Archived show

This show is from a previous year's festival

Following a surprising (and culturally deeply unsettling) sell-out smash-hit run at the Edinburgh fringe, this mindbogglingly awful (and disquietingly successful) idea for a comedy extravaganza face-plants into Machynlleth Comedy Festival. JLR wrangles together an all-star cast of the best comedians and worst idiots into creating a never-before-seen adaptation of an unadaptable text.

Previous catastrophic attempts include Francis Fukuyama’s discredited political treatise The End of History, post-structuralist Roland Barthes’ A Lover’s Discourse, the iTunes Terms and Conditions, Ulysses & Á la Recherche du Temps Perdu. May’s treat will be revealed on the night.

Restoration Levy – £1.50 of the advertised on-sale ticket price goes to Machynlleth Comedy Festival for the continued development and improvement of the event.
