Aim

To raise funds to take our Scottish production from nothing to awesome at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2027.

We are a mother (Clare) and daughter (Charlie) duo, one a whimsical  menopausal psychotherapist and the other an young driven aspiring actor, singer and dancer. What could possibly go wrong with this combo?

Our vision is to write our script based on the book 'Penguins Know What to Do' (available on Amazon) A comedic book written by Clare about a gen X daughter trying desperately not to become like her mother. We will then turn the script into a stage ready show and launch it at the Fringe.

We will cast the show (pay our actors and crew), get stuck in at rehearsals, arrange the venue, create the set, source the costumes, market the show and panic, argue, cry, laugh and create havoc along the way. 

If you have got some cash to support our dream venture and help it become reality, then please donate. If the pennies are tight, you are welcome to follow our journey and pop along to our show!
