"Flora MacDonald and Zombies is every bit as irreverent and fun as you might expect. Cannon is a versatile and talented performer and it is a joy to see her flex her comedy muscles and let rip in such an enjoyable romp" Great first ever review for Flora! 🤩 www.buxtonfringe.org.uk/reviews2025t...

@debsca.bsky.social is opening Flora MacDonald & Zombies at @buxtonfringe.bsky.social as we speak, so this can only mean one thing... biscuit challenge of the day! Have a stroopwaffel with a thematically appropriate graveyard in the background.

In this month’s Patreon, I chat with actor, writer and medievalist @debsca.bsky.social , whose one-woman show "Green Knight" has been casting its spell on audiences for nearly a decade. #Storytelling, subtext and subversion, all in one very green conversation. buff.ly/Yb1iBNk #medievalsky

Wee shout out to @debsca.bsky.social , who performed the fabulous delight that is Flora MacDonald & Zombies at @cymerafestival.co.uk & will have a run at the #Fringe www.edfringe.com/tickets/what... Highly recommended! #Edinburgh #Edimbourg #theatre #EdinburghFringe

The Flora MacDonald & Zombies biscuit challenge has begun! @debsca.bsky.social started it off teasing me with a choc chip cookie, and I'm now responding with a triple choc cookie (with a wee dash of whisky) Come see our show at @cymerafestival.co.uk this weekend and join the nonsense!

Hello, friends! As we may have mentioned once or twice before, Placeholder has been invited to go to Milan this October, thanks to lovely Dundee Fringe facilitating that. We do need to cover our own travel and digs costs, though, so if you can help us with some pennies, we'd be ever so grateful.

This week's to-do list starts with 'Get severed fingers and zombie goo'. I love working with the brilliant @flavdav-theatre.bsky.social! Come find out what it's all for at Flora Macdonald and Zombies @cymerafestival.co.uk! www.cymerafestival.co.uk/2025-tickets...
