“…It sparkles with intelligence, wit and verve…” – The Christchurch Press
A Dickensian tale of love, gin and the pox.
Following the delicate global sold out successes of Promise and Promiscuity, festival favourite Penny Ashton swaps Austen for Dickens and brings orphaned hero Olive and a squalid gaggle of hilarious Victorians to crusty life. A rollicking romantic musical journey through fifteen gin-soaked characters told with song, dance and questionable personal hygiene. It’s Olive! meets Blackadder with a saucy feminine twist.
