Friendsical will also enjoy a full run at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe from 1 – 25 August as part of the Assembly Festival programme in The Assembly Rooms’ Music Hall.
When Ross’ wife leaves him for another woman, he fears he will never find love again. But then Rachel runs back into his life… will he end up with his one true love?
Featuring original songs such as ‘(He’s her) Lobster!’, ‘Richard’s Moustache’ and ‘You’re Over Me? When Were You Under Me?’, the gang take on naked Thursdays, a power cut, and a dinosaur convention.
What could possibly go wrong?
