BORED STIFF

“A Black Comedy about Love, Death and Boredom”
Written, directed and performed by Michael J Buchanan-Dunne; playwright, stand-up
comedian (Comedy Store), gag-writer and BBC Radio Four sketch writer.

After the success of last year’s cannibal love-story ‘Moz and the Meal’ at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival comes the premiere of ‘Bored Stiff’.

Synopsis: Moz commits suicide so he can live in heaven, for all eternity, with the woman of his dreams… only to find that she’s already met someone else. Moz is stuck in limbo, rotting at the end of a rope, with only his love-sick ghost for company.

‘Bored Stiff’ stars Michael J Buchanan-Dunne as both Moz’s corpse and his ghost and features the vocal performances by Fiona Johnson (‘Band of Gold’) and comedian Paul Langton, with music composed and performed by Erik Stein and Jon Boux of ‘Cult With No Name’ (www.cultwithnoname.com).

Venue: The Temple, 21 Western Road, BN1 2AD

Dates: Monday 17th to Saturday 22nd May

Time: 15:00pm to 15:45pm
