Gulbenkian

Description

Hold on to your morals, Bourgeois & Maurice are hitting the road and pit stopping at the Gulbenkian with their critically-acclaimed Edinburgh Fringe hit Sugartits.

Treading the line between comedy, cabaret and a goth-pop-catwalk nightmare, Bourgeois & Maurice defy categorisation. The cult musical duo have established themselves as one of the international cabaret scene’s darkest, sharpest, funniest acts with their award winning catchy-as-hell songs, racking up performances around the world from New York to Belgrade, London to Melbourne.

Their latest show Sugartits sees Georgeois Bourgeois and Maurice Maurice tackle some of the most pressing issues of our time - and twist them into something altogether more bizarre. Covering phone-hacking scandals, ecological disasters and the sexual allure of a tax return, Bourgeois & Maurice set out to solve every issue of the 21st century using only a piano, a few plasticky instruments and a very warped sense of right and wrong. Littered with acid charm, sequins and marshmallows (don’t ask) Sugartits scratches beneath the dark duo’s glittering surface to reveal the beating heart of a world on the edge.

Not suitable for children under 14...or Rupert Murdoch supporters.
