Top Gunchained is the feel-good comedy bringing back the characters, romance and action of Tom Cruise’s aerial blockbuster, alongside the story of a father and son who are superfans of the film and can’t agree on anything except their favourite movie.

Can Maverick and best friend Goose beat Iceman to the Top Gun trophy? Can instructor Charlie get a drink without anyone singing at her? Can one Fringe First-winning poet and nerd re-enact the movie’s signature dogfights, alone?

This very unauthorised parody marks 40 years since Top Gun was released in cinemas, and is essential viewing for veterans and rookies alike.

A creative tour de force

Written and performed by Richard Marsh, a London poetry slam champion, BBC Audio Drama Best Scripted Comedy Drama award winner and fighter pilot (one of these is untrue). Directed by Hal Chambers, with movement by Emma Webb.

From the creative team behind the global smash hit Yippee Ki Yay.
