2ShoulderPads: GALAXY TRAIN

A poetic musical inspired by Japanese classical literature. The male performers wear only two shoulder pads as their costume – playful, never sexual. What begins as laughter at wriggling bottoms soon releases the audience’s imagination, revealing countless costumes and worlds. By the final scene, many are moved to tears.

Overflowing with the joy and power of theatre, 2ShoulderPads explores life and death, parting, and human connection through humour, songs and Kabuki-inspired physical expression.

With a sold-out run at Edinburgh Fringe 2025 and Spirit of the Fringe Award to their name, this ‘innovative, imaginative and deeply moving‘ (The Reviews Hub) show is a must-see.
