This post is for the benefit of anyone who’s been living under a rock in the Gobi Desert for the past few weeks, and don’t know that Mongolian Death Worm: A Puppet Show Musical is now finished and available for anybody and everybody to watch online! Yay! See below for over an hour of fun, frolics and silly silly songs:
What’s more, there’s even a tie-in album for those who want a little extra boogie for their money, available at https://tinyurl.com/mdwalbum
It’s here, it’s finally here!
Ladies and gentlemen, wake the kids, phone the neighbours, because today (31/10) is the day that Mongolian Death Worm: A Puppet Show Musical is released onto an unsuspecting public! From now on everything else will be a disappointment – birthdays will seem boring, Christmasses will seem contemptible, even weddings will seem wearisome. All will fade into insignificance compared with today, The Day of the Mongolian Death Worm! I hate to have to tell you this everybody, but your life is about to peak.
The complete musical, with its mightily meaty running time of almost 1 hour and 10 minutes, is uploading right this second and will (hopefully) premiere on YouTube this evening at 8 pm GMT. Keep you beady little eyes on the following link and be the first to see this unparalleled masterpiece:
In the meantime, you can build up your excitement even further by indulging in the last of the puppet monologues, this one featuring our lead protagonist Professor-Roy-Chapman-Andrews-But-You-Can-Call-Me-Roy-Chapman-Andrews. Take it away, Boy!
P.S. As I write this, it is 9:00 am, and the film has been uploading since 7:17. The upload is now 7% complete, and my computer has already crashed once. At the current rate of progress, if all goes perfectly, it will finish uploading approximately 10 minutes before the official release time. So let’s all keep our fingers crossed, but don’t be too disappointed if you have to wait slightly longer than expected for your dose of Hallowe’en worms!
It’s only three days until Mongolian Death Worm is unleashed on the world! Will it be a trick or a treat? You’ll have to wait and see…
In the meantime, here is a video diary from a personal friend of mine, Witch Doctor, in which she discusses all the adversity she has had to overcome in order to land her first major role:
This Hallowe’en is set to be the scariest EVER, because my fellow fellow James Ure and I will be releasing a terrifying giant worm to give you mildly surreal dreams! (It’s probably not scary enough to induce nightmares, if I’m honest.)
To get you royally hyped up, here’s the latest in our series of behind-the-scenes video diaries. This one features one of my favourite actors, whose name we put a huge amount of thought and care into choosing: Lips!
They say there’s no such thing as a free lunch.
Apparently there is such a thing as free form architecture.
Freeview definitely exists – I’ve seen it on my telly.
Rumour has it that Free Nelson Mandela exists.
There is such a thing as Free Willy – it’s a film, but I’ve never seen it.
Does free will exist? This is a topic for further discussion.
Fortunately for you, though, there is definitely such thing as a free download! I can assert this with supreme confidence because I have one for you today. It is called ‘The Ballad of the Mongolian Death Worm’ and is the opening song from a new musical that I’ve written with my acquaintance (and fellow Defender of the Sonnet Totaliser) James Ure. We’ve made it available on The Bandcamp via this link https://tinyurl.com/mdwalbum . Or if you prefer, you can also listen to it on The You Tube! Oh joy oh rapture!
