Casting Overview

Fishhook Theatre Company is looking for Europe-based actors with great singing voices, for ’Living With Skeletons’, a new fantasy musical premiering at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival this August.

“No one knows what happens after we die.”

Oscar can’t stop worrying about death. Ella can’t stop worrying about Oscar. While the young writer catalogues his snowballing existential crises, his half-sister ricochets through a kaleidoscopic wonderland filled with witches, pirates, and strange, hungry creatures called Fuzzies. Time unravels. Space turns over. A deeper mystery simmers beneath the surface, and Oscar’s in the centre of it all, if Ella could just find her way back to him.

Making its global debut at the 2023 Edinburgh Fringe Festival, ’Living With Skeletons’ is a mind-bending folk-musical rabbit-hole that takes a curious dive into living beings’ intrinsic fear of the “end”.

We will be holding rehearsals through July 2023 in Budapest, then performing with Gilded Balloon in Edinburgh, August 2nd to 13th, every night.

All travel and accommodations both in Budapest and Edinburgh will be covered in the fee.
