You don’t have to die laughing… because they’ve already done it for you!
Harry Ham and Eddie Egg were the greatest Butlins Redcoats the world had ever seen. But on the way to their final Friday Night Butlins Minehead Extravaganza, they died in a horrific collision with a twenty-ton truck.
Now, 60 years of purgatory later, they are ‘The Deadcoats’, two ghosts stuck in a form of light entertainment that’s deader than they are. Join them as they attempt to give their final performance at long last, and complete their unfinished business… before time runs out and the forces of darkness are unleashed!
Will they find out who’s got the loveliest legs in time? Can they run a Donkey Derby with no donkeys? And will Harry get to play his favourite game and discover, once and for all, “Will It Float?”
Find out at The Deadcoats, coming to a dilapidated resort near you soon…
Written & performed by George Mills & Nigel Munson
Directed by Barnaby Griffin
