UNIVERSITY students are to perform a Great British Bake Off inspired musical at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe next month.
‘The Bakewell Bake Off’ is a new musical being produced by Durham University Light Opera Group.
It is centred around a fictional baking competition and combines catchy tunes and hilarious baking puns in what has been described as an “energetic extravaganza”.
The opera group, one of the university’s oldest societies, will be putting on its fourth production at the festival.
Producer Henry Winlow said: “Putting on a show in a professional venue outside of Durham is a fantastic opportunity and an experience that very few other universities can offer.”
