Description 'Set at the peak of the French Revolution, Basket Case is a fast-paced, black comedy about life, death and everything after. Our trio of unlikely heroes? Three recently severed heads - victims of Madame la Guillotine. A disgraced war-hero, a scandalous lady of the court and a humble baker. They’re about to learn that death is just the beginning as they’re forced to go head-to-head…to head to save their souls. Only the good will prevail.'
