WE’VE DONE IT! THE ANIMALS HAVE RAISED  ONE MILLION POUNDS! Because of you, Foxy will have new teeth, he will have backing dancers, he will have a boom box and he will have a sub woofer!!!! The animals will ride around on a transportable thrown and if we’re really really lucky, we’ll have a mobility scooter like this…. But most importantly, we will have live music! Unfortunately another puppeteer is still financially unattainable.     ...So, what’s it like begging for money to fund your very very expensive dreams? Well it’s tough. It was a candle burning, stomach churning, ball busting month for me, an enormous amount of work on and off the pitch, holding down vague employment whilst spamming inboxes at every spare moment. You have to be witty, charming and engaging ALL THE TIME. Copy and paste jobs just don’t cut it. And you have to be relentless, ruthless, shameless! Everyone hates you but you have to ignore it and carry on regardless.  Crowdfunders are

Back in March people went WILD for wildlife, when real dead animal puppets took to the stage in an all singing all dancing musical of misfortune.  And after a sell out week long run at Vault Festival, the animals from Sing For Your Life have been asked to perform at Edinburghs premier venue for comedy- The Underbelly. But the animals need your help.  DESPERATELY  Foxy has made a video appeal guaranteed to melt even the hardest cheese.  Watch it here Turns out musicals are expensive. Who knew! Especially when you demand real music played by actual musicians.  To pay for them and how expensive everything else is, we need to sell 3075 tickets plus overfunding to survive.  HA! This year there are over 50,000 performances..... The animals definitely 100% need your need help to raise ONE MILLION POUNDS before judgment day:10th July.  This weekend was the top secret official launch of our crowdfunder campaign – and incredibly we're already ra

And we're taking it to the Holy Mecca of performance festivals, Edinburgh at The Udderbelly Yes, the highlight of your life really is coming to town.  Even God likes it. "A powerful howl of injustice with a distinctive creativity and grotesque charm all its own."  4* from  The Church of England.  "I t’s unsettling and queasy, yet downright hilarious... A mass of contradictions, Sing For Your Life is incongruously clever. A sordid, sardonic Sesame Street."  4*  The Londonist    "Why can't I give this 6*? Really was not expecting something as brilliant as this. ...Nothing prepared me for something as moving and polished as Sing For Your Life.. More charm than Avenue Q"  5*  Remote Goat The story follows a troupe of out

Sing For Your Life  is a  musical menagerie with everything you would expect from a normal musical…  except the entire cast are dead.  It follows a group of  foul fauna attempting to produce a cabaret show from the animal underworld... and this week we've been making the puppets!!!     Yes! T he cast of have been scraped up, puppets made, dance routines mentally mastered and the songs  ARE JUST KILLER  Buy  TICKETS NOW! Expect  hilarious and unsettling  songs from creatures that have been given a new lease of death by my raw taxidermy skills.  A stab in the cheek mixed with sardonic borderline insanity, Sing For Your Life is probably not a family friendly show, so prepare to have your morals questioned.. . You really will look at life in ways never seen, ever before.  This is the FIRST  and ONLY  taxidermy puppet show, recently f eatured in The Standard as one of THE puppet shows to see Gates transports you to a fantasy world where beauty and death colli
