The Times
THE SHOW
From the team behind hit comedy,
Hold On To Your Butts
three actors and a Foley artist band together in fellowship to perform a live, shot-for-shot parody of the most epic fantasy novel and film of all time - The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring - in 60-minutes of Middle-earth mayhem.
Fly, You Fools! is a jaw-dropping blend of physical comedy, live sound effects, mime, character impersonations and lo-fi spectacle.
Following two sell-out Edinburgh Fringe seasons, Recent Cutbacks’ riotous parody Fly, You Fools! is coming to Southwark Playhouse, Borough from 25 November 2026 and Birmingham Rep from 20 January 2027, marking the 25th anniversary of the first film's release.
