It's big, it's bandaged, it's scary! Battle ancient evil with plucky
archaeologist Fairfax of the British Museum in 'Curse of the Mummy's Nose'.
See the grizzly demise of Jovial Cockney Bill. Shiver with horror at Karis,
the Mummy. Plus Mad Dog Duggan, The Lonesome Stranger, English ritual dance,
two Tarzans. Two Englishmen and an American satirise the comic-strip world
where might is right and heroes are always stronger.

This is Rogues' Yarn's second appearance at the Fringe. Last year they
entered a 3-man version of Joseph Conrad's 'Heart of Darkness'. (Audience
reviews on Rogues' Yarn Website). This year they're making a complete
change in tone with a satirical sketch show, while retaining the empty
stage, mime and multiple roles of last year's play. Ben Shockley and John
Rackham have honed their unique fast-paced comedy style over years of
performance. They are appearing with Matt Klein, who played
Squanto in Kaliyuga Arts' 'The Pilgrim Project' at last year's Fringe. |
