The Fallen Institute to Bring MISTER MUSHROOM to London Horror Festival 2017

MISTER MUSHROOM is the first play by The Fallen Institute. It will perform on October 31st - November 2nd at The Old Red Lion Theatre as part of the London Horror Festival 2017.

It is written by Reece Connolly, and co-directed between himself and Christopher Keegan, who also performs in the title role.

Something terrible has transformed Little Spewling into a smoking toxic necropolis. Now a solitary rider - the so-called MISTER MUSHROOM - picks their way through the ruined streets, bent on cleaning up this small town once and for all.

In one hand he holds a broom, in the other a rifle.

Radiation is rising, and with each breath the inevitable draws closer, yet the mission is far from complete. Find Bunny - the only good and innocent thing left in this whole cursed place.

Find Bunny, and save her.

But there is something truly monstrous lurking in the darkness - a mutated and raging evil - and it is growling stronger every day...

MISTER MUSHROOM is a sickly, shocking, and suspenseful new play, depicting a world of desperation and extremity, desolation and horror - riffing off of classic dystopian and post-apocalyptic fictions of the past to present an original, chilling, and twisted parable for an increasingly nuclear future.

The Fallen Institute - curated By director and actor Christopher Keegan and writer Reece Connolly - are an organisation devoted to exposing the very darkest and most shadowy case-files long-classified by the Establishment. Through theatre we will shine a torch into murky corners of mystery and horror and confront the monsters we find there together.
