Tickets available for this year's Edinburgh Fringe Festival production

Tickets are now available for Shrewsbury’s latest original musical, ‘The Traitor’s Wife’, which will be touring to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival this August.

Shrewsbury School has been taking original musicals to the Fringe for 30 years, including winning a Fringe First award for ‘Jekyll!’ This will be our eleventh production, with a cast and band made up of students from the Third Form to Upper Sixth.

The show is set in the glamorous, bohemian world of pre-war Paris, where a beautiful American heiress meets a dashing British diplomat. As their romance blossoms, she learns that he has secrets: the charming, diffident Cambridge graduate leads a double life as a radical Communist and the deadliest agent of Soviet Russia. As she is drawn into the murky world of Cold War espionage, she must decide if love really does conquer all. Based on the true story of Donald and Melinda Maclean, the show promises to be a huge success.

We will be performing at Paradise in Augustines (Venue 152), 19-24 August at 12.40pm. Tickets are available here.
