EDFEST: FISH

FISH

Thursday, July 17th

NYC-born clown and woman Funmi swims in Fish, a one-woman clown show about a fish (played by Funmi) who wants to be a human (played by Funmi playing Fish). To succeed, Fish must learn how to walk, learn how to talk and learn how to do the most human thing of all: struggle with the crushing weight of existential worry in this stupid flesh suit. Directed and co-devised by Chris Manley, ultimately this is a show about how to find joy, purpose and community in this very strange and dark moment in human history.

Part of EdFest, a festival of NYC Edinburgh Fringe previews produced by Jess Ducey, with technical director Jen Leno. Catch this and 11 other shows before they head to Scotland.
