Details

The Daily Fail is an original comedy musical which takes a satirical look at the Leveson Inquiry hacking scandal and the nature of modern media and fame. The story is about two girls, London and Dim, who are desperate to be famous at any cost but the only problem is they don't have any talent. They find themselves in hell when they become famous at the granted wish of their Fairy Godmother (Rupert Murdoch) and cannot handle the pressure of fame nor the pressure of the press. Featuring hit songs such as 'Hugh Grant Is My Ideal Man', 'We Could Be Famous', 'Making A Sex Tape' and 'Seven Deadly Press Sins'. Suitable for age 14+. Running time: 120mins with an interval.
