Comedy, political satire, farce – call it what you will this play is designed to make you laugh
Dario Fo’s play, written in Italy 50 years ago, feels totally relevant in New Zealand today.
A farce for today: extreme effects of prices going up, jobs disappearing, and workplaces closing down.
What happens when house- wives ‘liberate’ groceries and the town is filled with pregnant housewives?
Choosing the concept of ‘Circus’ for this play seems a good fit as the Clown, the Fool and the Jester have traditionally been able to say/do anything without fear or recriminations.
