New musical FOUR FELONS AND A FUNERAL announces South-East England and Edinburgh tour

Ever thought of stealing someone’s ashes? Neither had Millie. Now she’s barrelling down the M6 in a Fiat Punto with three accomplices, forty five packets of crisps and a large decorative urn. Four Felons and a Funeral is about four dysfunctional friends on a road trip to scatter their mate’s ashes. En route, they go through the five essential stages of grief: screaming, shouting, fighting, fainting and fleeing from justice.

Four Felons and a Funeral is a feel-good caper with a sharp musical score and a fiercely comic script. Both funny and acerbic and nostalgic and melancholy, this is an uplifting show that blends musical theatre with pop and jazz to create a distinct and accessible new sound.

Following their sell-out run of Don’t Say Macbeth! and Sex With Friends at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2022, GOYA Theatre Company are thrilled to announce a South-East England tour between 13-27 July, before going to the Edinburgh Fringe as part of the Pleasance Courtyard’s Fringe programme. Four Felons and a Funeral will premiere at the North Wall Arts Centre in Oxford before touring in Colchester, Crawley and the Other Palace Theatre and King’s Head Theatre in London.

Four Felons and a Funeral is written and directed by Sam Woof, music and lyrics by Woof and Màth Roberts. The cast includes Jordan Broatch (Galaxy Train, The Other Palace) as Wilf, Gabrielle Friedman (How To Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, Southwark Playhouse) as Millie, Maddy Maguire as Bex, and Rua Barron as Saz.
