[Earnest post alert] Hi tumblr: you may remember me from my time acting in Nothing Much To Do and Lovely Little Losers. (if you don't know what that means don't worry, and if you did know but didn't know I was on tumblr, now you do!) I just wanted to tell you all that I've co-written a play with @balmoras, and I also act in it. The reason I'm posting about this on tumblr is because it's literally fanfic we put on stage. This play would literally not exist without tumblr and my misspent youth here. It's about the four bad kids from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory stuck in a house together dealing with their childhood trauma 15 years on (I play Augustus Gloop). There's shipping, angst and found family.
Waiting for Wonka is performing at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival at the Gilded Balloon Patter House 5th-16th August, 11:40-12:40, and you can get tickets at the link below. I know that many of you won't be at Edinburgh Fringe but if you are, please come and see us (or tell your friends who WILL be there, or come up for a day or two if you're able!) and you can always donate to our Ko-fi (https://ko-fi.com/halftrick) to maybe help us get it to other places in the future. It would mean a lot to have people in the audience who really get what we're all about, yknow? [Earnest post ends.]
