| Description |
Russell McGilton is our tour guide for the duration of this play, taking the audience on a frenetic journey – a first-hand account unlike any you’d read in a Bill Bryson book or Lonely Planet guide. It’s completely unsanitised (in more ways than one), and all the better for it. Our journeyman sets out with confidence, but of course things quickly go awry. Helped out by a little bit of malaria we are ushered through feverish flashbacks. The infuriatingly curious, ever (un)helpful locals, the unfamiliar gastronomically volcanic cuisine, the toll of endless cycling on one’s bottom and balls. |
