It's 1972 and one bug band is about to change music forever. Five funky bug musicians are coming to you live with the true story of the greatest band you've never heard of. As featured on BBC's The One Show, this Pixar-style musical comedy invites everybuggy into a world of 70s talking insects. Tune in your antennae as five bug actor-musicians tell the tale of a cricket with nothing but a trumpet and a dream of hitting the bug-time. Funk, soul and heart for old bugs and kids alike. Part of the Lowry x Edinburgh Season.
