The Scaring

Heeeeeeeeere’s Crybabies. When former priest Arthur Holland checks into a remote hotel, he soon discovers that all is not as it screams (seems).

Join the Edinburgh comedy award nominees on a terrifying narrative sketch tale about fear, faith, fathers (the normal kind), fathers (the Church kind), fantoms (Phantoms) and finally moving on.

From the Olivier Award winning Producers of Fleabag and Baby Reindeer. ***** (Telegraph).

Crybabies

Crybabies are an exciting new troupe of comedians, clowns, musicians and a freelance content writer from Kent. Their work aims to breathe surreal new life into age old adventures, with wall to wall gags rooted in heartfelt stories. As performers, the cast have worked with the BBC, Netflix and the National Theatre of Scotland. “Genius-madman” (Bruce Dessau). “In equal amounts clever and absolutely nuts” (Three Weeks). “Surreal, silly and spectacular” (Broadway Baby). “Ripe with wit” (The Skinny). “Terrifically useless” (The Times).
