SH!T THEATRE DRINK RUM WITH EXPATS To Tour the UK
It's Brexit year and a Maltese mate (Charlie Cauchi - do you know her?) invites Sh!t Theatre out to her island paradise Malta for the Valletta European Capital of Culture - as British citizens, for Becca and Louise it's their last European Capital of Culture. Lads on tour Becca and Louise are paid an inflated fee to make a show about expats, for an audience of expats. To be performed at Malta's The Pub (renowned expat drinking hole and deathplace of drunk legend Oliver Reed). Easy enough.
