On
12 October 1972 a Fairchild F-227 chartered by an amateur rugby team left Uruguay
for Santiago in Chile. Shortly before Christmas two emaciated young men staggered
down from a high plateau in the Andes to announce that they were survivors of
a plane which had crashed seventy days before. Shunt puts the scrum on the grill
to reconsider the etiquette of survival and the awkward implications of cannibalism
in polite society. Performed in a railway arch beneath London Bridge station,
this is a wild, imaginative, production that veers between outrageous humour
and the macabre. ‘Critics’ Choice’ Time Out. Total Theatre
and Herald Angel awards.

is playing with some of the more extreme possibilities of theatrical experience.
