‘Special Ed: Healthy Body, Happy Me!’ takes the idea of Educational Children’s Theatre and kicks it to the ground screaming. It is an irreverent and sometimes disturbing parody of all that is associated with Family Entertainment.

The show centres on Callum – whose big life plan did not involve performing for children. Unfortunately for him, his cuddly puppet sidekick (‘Ed’) has not failed to notice his shortcomings, and is all too quick to crudely point them out!

Ed soon begins to take on a disturbing life of his own, and tries to push Callum over the edge with obscene humour and cruel insults. Meanwhile, fellow actor (Diana), and resident technician (Joe) must keep the performance from falling apart - all the while fending off the advances of a maniacal puppet.

Will Ed succeed in sabotaging the show? Can Diana and Joe win the battle against Ed and how far can a puppet push his master before the lines are blurred? Join them for an education of a special nature. ‘Special Ed: Healthy Body, Happy Me!’ is ballsy, outrageous and aimed squarely at adults!
