    Burning Down the Horse

    After two sell-out Fringe runs, Burning Down the Horse gallops to London! This immersive comedy epic drops you into the heart of the most iconic wooden animal in history – the Trojan Horse.

    Become part of this ‘infectiously funny‘ (FringeReview.co.uk) tale as you contend with heroic egos, class clashes and sword supply issues. There’s only one rule: Odysseus’ word is law. And for the love of gods – no naked flames! Join us for ‘a complete riot of an hour‘ (Everything Theatre) and experience what really went on inside the belly of the beast.

    This show is part of Fringe Fix – a cracking handpicked selection of shows we think you’ll love from this year’s Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
