‘Ironic. Immortality within my grasp and yet, I just wanted time to stop'

A solo show about a man who gains immortality, but at a price: A snail gains super intellinged and begins following him directly wherever he goes. If they touch, the universe ends. 

Around the World in 80 Days meet Faust meets Catch me if you Can. The slowest game of cat and mouse the universe has ever seen. Based on a popular meme thread, be thrilled by daring escapes, mad science experiments gone wrong and meditations on what a thousand lifetimes amount to. What is life when you have all the time in the world, but never a chance to rest?An adult fairytale about finding the moments of calm, slowing down and the self induced panic that self preservation causes us all.

Presented by Wandering Artist Collective. Hot off the heels of a Five Star Edinburgh run of ‘End of the World FM’, Kevin Martin Murphy stars as yet another wildly absurd adventurer trying their best to rebel against the void and laugh at the abyss.
