Been a bit lax with my @edfringe highlights. Here are 3 must-see shows! 🧵👇🏻

So sorry to hear the news about Carl Davis, a man with an incredible gift for melody. His scores for The General, Our Hospitality and Napoléon are some of my absolute favourites.

Excited to be performing at #EdFringe again: the first time since @BusterMusical. This show is a total treat, with beautiful tunes and stunning staging!

How is your week going so far?
Thinking about #RamiMalek when I watch this scene from #HardLuck, 1921. #Ouch
#JoeRoberts with his one-handed lift. We love some Joe.

@karlsteele @WolvesGrand They’re lucky to have you!!

[When You Fall Down @BusterMusical]

@axolotlriot Yes he really has the eyes for it! He’d be perfect for a slightly older Buster. To be honest, if he and Rami want to share the role, I’m happy just to do the pratfalls!

[When You Fall Down @BusterMusical]

Well, I guess Rami Malek’s got the job then 😜
In all seriousness, I’m delighted to see a Buster Keaton series commissioned. His story is too amazing not to be told. If the show introduces a whole new audience to his incredible talents, that’s damfino!

[When You Fall Down @BusterMusical]

@waltydunlop Absolutely! I can’t believe it hasn’t happened before now! I’m glad it’s a series as opposed to a single movie. There’s so much to Buster’s story and he deserves several hours at least!

[When You Fall Down @BusterMusical]

@eclecticmayhem2 @DannyDeraney Yep! And there’s also a plunging car stunt in Spite Marriage (1929), which the studio wouldn’t let him perform. But these exceptions are few and far between!

[Danny Deraney @DannyDeraney]

Buster Keaton did not need a stunt double. Legend.

@BusterKGifs @BusterKeatonSoc @jddangerfield Many thanks @BusterKGifs! Maybe we can have several Buster films and mine will be the musical one. Wouldn’t that be brilliant? 😀
