Day of the Locust

About:

The sun is hot. The air is dry. You have come to California to die.

Award winning multi-instrumentalist and Pleasance stalwart storyteller Callum Patrick Hughes rips apart Nathanael West's 1930's Great American Novel, rebuilding it with loop pedals, guitar drones and a soundscape of broken dreams and fading stardom.

Presented by multi WhatsOnStage Award-nominated Fake Escape as part of their Decade of Fringe season.
