Terry Pratchett’s Guards! Guards!
Join Strawmoddie Theatre Company at the Pleasance for this amateur production of Terry Pratchett’s Guards! Guards!, adapted for stage by Stephen Briggs!
About Terry Pratchett’s Guards! Guards!
Terry Pratchett's infamous city of Ankh-Morpork is under threat from a 60-foot fire-breathing dragon, summoned by a secret society of malcontented tradesmen!
Defending Ank-Morpork against this threat is the entire, underpaid, undervalued City Night Watch - a drunken and world-weary Captain, a cowardly and overweight Sergeant, a small opportunistic Corporal of dubious parentage...and their newest recruit, Lance Constable Carrot, who is upright, literal, law-abiding and keen. Aiding them in their fight for truth, justice and the Ankh-Morporkian way are a small swamp dragon and the Librarian of Unseen University (who just happens to be an orang-utan).
Brought to the stage by Edinburgh-based company Strawmoddie Theatre.
