New musical comedy from No Cause For A Llama

What happens to a budding new comedy group when they get infiltrated by an annoying Australian and his crazy Russian agent. From London to Trinidad to deep space. This is an adventure that spans the entire universe (Even South Petherton). A unique, baffling, comic musical extravaganza that will mess with your mind and also mess with your mind.

Richard O’Brien’s quirky, non-formulaic audio pantomime PIG IN BOOTS was recorded in front of a live studio audience at Headliners Comedy Club. Come and join Patsy and Tom-Tom in Panto-Opolis as they travel across the country, encountering an ever-growing mix of characters while they a plan to scam wealthy victims out of their riches with a pyramid scheme based on non-existent real estate.

With original music performed and composed by James McQuillian, great performances from all the actors, and live sound effects from The Foley Brothers, we think this recording has perfectly captured the personality and atmosphere of the evening. In true pantomime style we have left in all the actors fluffs, so feel free to cheer and jeer along with the audience.

Laugh? You’ll positively squeal!

THE YOUTH OF OLD AGE written and directed by Stuart Price

Starring Prunella Scales, Knight Mantell, Edward Harrison, Crystal Yu and David Beck

Edited by Joe Waters

Music composed and perfomed by Matt Fishel

Wickedly acerbic new writing The Youth Of Old Age shows Prunella Scales at her ‘dragon tongued’ best as the matriarch, determined her heir should not marry ‘out of sorts’.  “It’s a wonderfully witty and warm piece that tells its story with delicious intrigue and compelling characterisation” Peggy Nuttall, North London Papers
