About this show
Last year, married comedy duo Couplet stole the hearts of audiences with their show Honey Honey Moon Moon which they debuted on their real honeymoon at the Edinburgh Fringe – * (EdFestMag.com), (StarburstMagazine.com). This year they return with a hot new hour of consensual folking, Folk Marry Kill. With their fiddle and guitar, Marnina and Micah tell so-weird-they-must-be-true stories from a decade of being monogamous… a British sleep hypnotist, a therapy workbook that doesn't hold back and an Uber driver who loves his zip ties. They'll keep folking till death do them part.
