THE zombie comedy musical ‘Tom and Bunny Save the World’, is at Shrewsbury’s Theatre Severn on Tuesday night, May 1, from the award-winning Fat Rascal Theatre company as part of their UK tour.

As 2018 falls to a zombie apocalypse, Tom and Bunny begin their perilous journey to Yorkshire in quest of sanctuary and a proper cup of tea.

Join Tom and Bunny as they discover what it is to be British in a crisis, in this gender-stereotype destroying, black and bloody comedy with a live folk soundtrack.

Women are are placed in roles usually taken by men; the soldier, the scientist and the sexual instigator. They place their female characters in the centre of the violence, while the men are allowed to be vulnerable, caring and maternal. This wacky, bizarre yet familiar setting allows them to explore and break the traditional gender roles we find within this genre and leaves room to question why they existed in the first place.

The young, bold and cheeky Fat Rascal Theatre are currently part of the New Diorama Graduate Emerging Companies scheme.

Tickets are priced £14 and can be had from the box office on 01743 281281.
