About this show
Zany, humorous, life exploration of infamous American criminal: Manson. British doppelganger, Charlie, has an affinity with his US namesake. Their twin-like connection is a frightening reality, which must not be repeated or replicated, except in the safe environment of the Fringe. A madcap Helter Skelter ride through madness. Come, join the cult! This is a world premiere featuring the award-winning Kevin Short. Last year, Kevin had five-star reviews for his portrayal in Beckett's Krapp's Last Tape – and in previous years has won Best New Play, Spirit of the Fringe Awards and Total Theatre nominations.
