Wealth of Nations .. hilarious
March 23, 2009
Sam Downing as Agent Smog was delighted when she heard that one audience member had asked, “Who was on the door? She was such a bitch!”
Job well done Sam!!
Tim gave us the brief to be casual and dismissive in our authority as customs agents, interrogating and searching immigrants to the Wealth of Nations Nut Economy by Sanctum Theatre.
Of course Tim has the expertise as Sergeant Blank from the Watch-house. He knows all about tormenting people who refuse to acknowledge his authority or try to play funny games.
Nice to be directed by a master of his craft.
This was an hilarious evening, as people scrambled to purchase their local currency (peanuts) while the exchange rates went up and down. Tim and Lachy revisited their “Battle of Civilisations” in Michael Camilleri’s huge city-costumes of Gog and Magog.
The Kurts gave us fine music.
The red lentil soup was divine.
Nobody got arrested.
