The End of the World Show was at the Edinburgh Fringe in August 2011 and August 2012. Every audience member received a round show badge. Six or seven highly-coveted 'I cheated Death at the End of the World Show' badges were won at each performance.

The show was rated PG, and people as young as six enjoyed it. It was awarded one four-star and one three-star review. The material pertains to, among other things, religious beliefs about the End Times, and death. Content is only as gory as various ancient religious texts; i.e. a bit gruesome in places. But only adults find that aspect challenging, because kids tend to like that kind of stuff. They grow up so fast these days, and you really have no idea at all what they see on the Internet. Believe me, this pales in comparison. And it's a life-affirming exposition, which will make them – and you – think.
