Old Fitzroy Theatre, Woolloomooloo - A dark comedy based on the puppet show Punch and Judy which was first staged in 1832,
The Fabulous Punch and Judy Show revives a classic tale in a no-holds barred journey that unmasks what it means to be Australian. Playwright
Brent Thorpe and musical director
Billy O'Riordan stage the adult pantomime with hints of burlesque, vaudeville and grotesque theatre.
The Fabulous Punch and Judy Show is inspired by the work of Reg Livermore, Lindsay Kemp, The Cycle Sluts and Cabaret Conspiracy. It is a work that makes Mr Punch proud as he unveils his political view of the world and takes action to make things right - even if that means slaying children, screwing maids and strangling poofters. It's all in a day's work.
