An Edinburgh Fringe Preview — Lydia is ready to welcome you to the village green, so why not see if you can help her to discover the mysteries of the tombola (and see if you can win a prize while you’re at it!).

“I’m not in the regular habit of putting dismembered body parts as prizes for my stalls. Unless I’m put in charge of the meat raffle, then that’s all dismembered body parts.”

After a severed foot is found in the box of one of the tombola prizes, the Greenwold village fete is thrown into disarray. But Lydia, who runs the tombola stall, is determined not to let it ruin the day. As she pushes on, the revelations get even more bizarre, and as Lydia attempts to work out ‘whodunnit’, it appears there might be a more horrific truth to the village, and the fete than anyone realised.

A camp comedic interactive murder mystery written and performed by ‘vibrant storyteller’ Daniel McVey where audience volunteers become the other characters, suspects and even the police officer. Inspired by the worlds of cozy crime and cosmic horror, prepare to be intrigued, entertained, and leave questioning the wild world we live in.

Catch the bizarre and hilarious new show, A Foot is Not an Appropriate Prize for the Tombola, before its debut run at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe this summer.

Supported by Curve, Leicester.
