Honk!

Musical Theatre @ George Square    6 - 31 August @ 12.00    Pendulum Productions

‘It’s a poultry tale of folk down on the farm!’ The Award winning Stiles and Drew musical Honk! comes to this year’s Edinburgh Fringe with a bright and breezy production. Telling the story of the Ugly Duckling the young ensemble takes us through Ugly’s story as he tries to find his way home back to the farm. Strong performances from James Matthew-Hughes as Ugly and Leejay Townsend as The Cat means that any young audience member will be kept captivated as they sing, dance and act their way through the story. Townsend has strong comedy timing and works well with Matthew-Hughes. From dancing frogs to sexy cats, ugly ducks to caring mums – there is something in this production for everyone. Although I felt that the directing, at times, let the production down the cast give their all in this fun, family show.
