The Mould That Changed The World – Websters Theatre

18 – 20 August, 2022
Websters Theatre, 416 Great Western Rd, Glasgow G4 9HZ
Would you save the world if you could? Alexander Fleming’s penicillin was a life-changing discovery that became a world-changing cure. Now at the end of his life, he is not just looking back, he must still look forwards – because the world depends on it. Resistance is a threat that no one knows is coming – because no one is listening. How can he rescue the power of all antibiotics from the frenzy of the miracle cure before it’s too late?
The sell-out musical returns by popular demand! Since its 2018 run at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, the show has been developed into a full length biopic of Alexander Fleming’s life and premieres at the Edinburgh Fringe and in Glasgow before heading on a tour of the USA in October 2022.
“Informative, educational, funny, silly and delightful, with hilarious scientific fun-poking to a very sold out, appreciative and engaged audience.” – West End Wilma, 2018
