Synopsis
With the pantomimic humour of Monty Python and the heart of a Pixar film, The Questing Beast tells the story of King Pellinore, who was tasked by his father to hunt for the elusive Questing Beast.
But when Pellinore and his Fool meet Grummore Grummersum, they are offered a warm bed and the temptation to give up their quest. Without his search for the Beast to guide him, Pellinore must now find a new purpose in life.
Did we mention that this show has a ten-foot tall giraffe puppet? (fringetoronto.com)
