With the 2026 Mascot Grand National rapidly approaching and her shell-suit sporting dad indisposed, reluctant Ella must fill Eddie The Egg's incredibly big boots in this heartwarming, hilarious story about one extraordinary race for glory. Written and performed by Best Solo Performance nominee (The Stagey Place) Claudia Fielding, with direction and music by Anna Rastelli, the pair returns to Edinburgh debuting this wacky comedy about family tradition, legacy and the love of The Game. 'Fielding is the oddball left field droll hero we all need in our lives' (FringeReview.co.uk). 'A writer-performer to keep tabs on' (Everything-Theatre.co.uk).
