Sh!t Theatre: Drink Rum With Expats, Soho Theatre London
Maltese mayhem and mirth from anarchic duo
SH!T THEATRE — the anarchic Louise Mothersole and Rebecca Biscuit — scored a hit with their latest show at the Edinburgh fringe festival and now the political performance duo are taking it on a not-to-be missed tour.
Drink Rum With Expats is set in the very watering hole in Malta — The Pub — where actor Oliver Reed drank his last and it’s inspired by the time a local friend invited the pair to do a show in the Maltese capital Valetta in honour of it being awarded European City of Culture status last year.
Of course, the troublesome twosome steer well clear of any awkward references to Brexit, the migrant crisis and the assassination of investigative journalist Daphne Caruana Galizia — not.
