Synopsis
Islands
Published by Methuen
2 Male 3 Female
Oxfam estimate $18.5 trillion is siphoned out of the world economy into tax havens by wealthy individuals
Christian Aid calculates 1,000 children die every day as a result of tax evasion
Islands is an illuminating, absurd and powerful new show about tax havens, little empires, enormous greed, and the few who have it all
Head off-shore and frolic with those who have it all worked out as they feed their addiction to wealth, power and material stuff
This hilarious, unnerving, ink-black musical comedy plunges you into a monstrous, secretive world where it seems no-one ever has to pay for anything
Absurdist, angry, crude and scatological
Premiere at the Bush Theatre, London, January 2015
