A penniless travelling performer bursts into the theatre, pursued by the authorities. Whilst the threat of arrest remains close, he can’t help but hijack the stage and tell folk tales lampooning the elite…and maybe earn a quid or two doing it.
Subversive and satirical, Mistero Buffo is an infamous play by Nobel Prize-winning writer Dario Fo, and his actress-wife Franca Rame, that the Vatican described as “blasphemous”.
This is a brand-new Scots version of the play translated by Joseph Farrell, former lecturer at the University of Strathclyde, who has translated several of Dario Fo’s works.
This is the play’s first Scottish production since 2003, and was famously performed by Robbie Coltrane with the theatre company Borderline over 30 years ago.
All tickets include a pie/vegan sausage roll and a drink (alcoholic or soft).
