Chris Bryant, EU and competition law partner at international law firm Berwin Leighton Paisner, was inspired by his day-to-day work to write the original 70-minute musical.

The wide-ranging cast of characters include Boris Johnson, Michael Gove, David Cameron, Theresa May and Jeremy Corbyn, with the Prime Minister belting out songs including Brexit Means Brexit.

Mr Bryant told Legal Cheek: “I have been advising clients on the issues surrounding Brexit for the last two years and writing songs for most of my life. It seemed obvious to put the two things together to pen a musical about Brexit. With the characters involved and the events that have occurred since last June, there’s so much fun to be had!”

The show will be on from 2-14 August and 16-28 August. Tickets are available from the Edinburgh Fringe website.
