Description
Last year, married comedy duo Couplet stole the hearts of audiences from Los Angeles to Edinburgh in their multi-award-winning show Honey Honey Moon Moon. Now, they’re picking up where they left off with a folktale about sex and death in a hot new hour. Folk Marry Kill finds Marnina & Micah asking the hard questions: “how often should a married couple, you know, folk?” and “how long can forever actually last?” and “if you had to, who would you kill: Kermit the Frog, Paddington Bear, or Tony Hawk?” With their guitar and fiddle, Couplet tells so-weird-they-must-be-true stories from a decade of being monogamous…a British sleep hypnotist, a therapy workbook that doesn't hold back, and an Uber driver who loves his zip ties. They’ll keep folking till death do them part.

Directed by Katie Lindsay. Written and performed by Marnina Schon and Micah O'Konis.
