Step into the world of Charles Dickens with this lively stage adaptation of his beloved novel, which made its debut in November 1838 at the Adelphi Theater in London. At that time, only eight installments of the story had been published, leading to the omission of key characters like the flamboyant Crummles family, who play a significant role in the later narrative.

Unstoppable Farce tells the story of "Mr. Mirth" himself, in his own words, beginning with forty-five years of what might generously be described as a wasted existence before he decided to become the most successful FC (Famous Comedian) of all time. He describes how he created his Lithuanian Chupacabra alter ego, honed his signature Cheezy Pleezers bit, and became a viral sensation on Qlip Qlop and H!jnx. He dishes the dirt on touring with Hannah Gadsby and Dave Chapelle, what really went down behind the scenes at SNL, and what it was like to be the first (and last) comedian to play the ...

But it's not the drink that kills Mark - it's somebody in the cast who has a secret that Mark must not be allowed to reveal....
