‘With Love From St. Tropez’ is a riot of brexit, buquas and butt-plugs as seen through the lens of the Periodic Table fo Elements.
A show about lies and truth- or is that the same thing? Nudity and The Periodic Table, these things hold the key to the future. How much do you wear? What do you look like, and will they let you in? Whatever happens, don’t you dare wear more than dental floss on a French beach.
‘After starving to death on a desert Island, I’ve changed my mind about a few things. I knew nothing about men before, I know an awful lot now. Men versus women, survival, and is anyone really an atheist in the middle of a Tsunami?’
This show launched at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2017 at the Gilded Balloon for a 26 night run and, including London previews, has played for a total of 87 nights.
