NEWSFLASH:

After a critically acclaimed run at the Edinburgh Fringe ("Raises the hairs on the back of your neck ... laugh-out-loud funny" The Times), Octopus transfers to London's prestigious Theatre503 for one week only, from 11 to 15 October (https://theatre503.com/whats-on/octopus/). We're so excited to be bringing this satire about what it means to be British back to London. We've had some incredible audience responses: if you've missed it so far, now's your chance!

 

We asked Rebecca Oldfield, who plays Sarah in Octopus, yes, you guessed it...eight questions.

How do you feel about this Octopus?

Excited. A bit nervous, but looking foward to getting to grips with this eight-legged creature.

Why should Edinburgh want some Octopus?

Edinburgh will LOVE and embrace this Octopus. It's diverse, thought-provoking, hysterically funny, infuriatingly accurate. It has music, attitude and a lot of heart! I think it will fit right in at Edinburgh.

 

We asked Alex D'Sa, who plays Sara in Octopus, er...eight questions.

How do you feel about this Octopus?

Totally energised and engaged. I want to throw this Octopus in the middle of Westminster and see each of its tentacles capture certain politicians in a headlock.

Why should Edinburgh want some Octopus?

Apart from the obvious deliciousness of octopus haggis, Edinburgh is such a diverse, open place with endless possibilities, sharp comedy and musical masterminds -- all of which can be found in Octopus!
