QQ: Anna The Slut

The cast of 'Anna The Slut' do the Quick Quiz

1. What is your 2008 show all about?
A Geek, a Jock, and the Sumerian Goddess of hot, dirty sex walk into a bar...

2. Why should we come and see it?
Where else will you find naked shadow puppets, hot girls, stage combat, and Sumerian mythology all in one place on the Fringe?

3. If your show was an Olympic sport, what would it be and why?
Nordic relay fencing, in a triathlon with swimming and table tennis. Because our show is just that kind of amalgam: perhaps a wee bit arcane, but with enough spectacle to keep it light on its skis and its head above water. And, like the above sport, our show is almost, but not entirely, made up.

4. What are you most looking forward to about this year's Festival?
Eating lunch every day at Piemaker on South Bridge. And seeing lots of great shows (after having just eaten lunch at Piemaker).

5. What are you least looking forward to about this year's Festival?
Our one day off. It'll lull us into a false sense of leisure.

6. What advice would you have for someone trying to navigate the Fringe?
If all else fails, just start seeing shows in alphabetical order. And give special preference to shows that have the word "slut" in the title.

7. What advice would you have for someone trying to survive the Fringe?
Take a break from shows to go eat at Piemaker. They're not paying us to say this, we just really like their food.

8. Describe your show in three words
Sexy literary whimsy.
