Yippee Ki Yay

About

Achingly funny rhyming retelling of classic (Christmas?) film Die Hard from Richard Marsh – Fringe First-winner, London poetry slam champion, BBC Audio Drama Best Comedy-winner and New York cop (one of these is untrue).

When gunmen seize an LA skyscraper, off-duty policeman John McClane is the hostages’ only hope. This uplifting action romp (and unauthorized parody) pays affectionate tribute to the iconic 80s fan favorite. Essential viewing for Hans Gruber super fans and newcomers alike.

Content warning: divorce, foot trauma, German terrorists.
