Last night we went along to Oran Mor in Glasgow to see 2 of our sons Gerry and John perform, for the last time "Greyfriars' Twisted Tales" They were joined by the other member of the Martian Band, Houston, as well as 2 audience "plants"
The boys wrote and first performed the show at the Edinburgh Fringe 2 years ago.
It was great entertainment. Witty lines, wicked parodies of Mary Poppins and all, and really hilarious acting. Gerry as Greyfriars' Bobby, then as Nessie in the final song had to be seen to be believed. Houston as John Knox.
A really good hour of entertainment, enjoyed by all present.
Google the Martians website for more information, and google Greyfriars Twisted Tales too.
The new site is www.themartians.co.uk - they're also on twitter: @themartiansband.
ReplyDeleteTwas very funny - I loved the new addition of the inventors song, James Clark Maxwell doesn't get enough mentions in musical comedy :)
