Garth Marenghi's Fright Knight

Garth Marenghi's Fright Knight

Garth Marenghi's Fright Knight was a low-budget comedy horror stage show written by Matthew Holness and Richard Ayoade, and starring Holness, Ayoade and Alice Lowe. It was performed at the Edinburgh Fringe in summer 2000 where it was nominated for the Perrier Award.

The show was built around Holness's spoof horror writer character Garth Marenghi, with additional parts played by Ayoade (as Marenghi's publisher Dean Learner) and Lowe.

The sequel to "Fright Knight", "Garth Marenghi's Netherhead", won the Perrier Award in the summer of 2001.
