Showlist S
Saucy Jack & the Space Vixens
Book by Charlotte Mann; Lyrics by Charlotte Mann and Micahel Fidler;
Music by Jonathan Croose and Robin Forrest.
Based on an original idea by Johanna Allitt, Simon Curtis, Michael Fidler
and Charlotte Mann.
Since its creation in 1995 at the Edinburgh Festival Saucy Jack has
been performed to ecstatic audiences in all manner of venues from West
End theatres to Victorian railway arches; tiny back street bars to giant
big tops. It has constantly delighted people with its explosive energy
and has attained a sub-cultural status with a fan-base of plastic-clad
revellers who follow the show around. |
|
The show is set in a seedy cabaret bar on the planet Frottage III — presided
over by the alluring and charismatic Saucy Jack himself. All is not well — danger
lurks in every corner as the cabaret acts are being picked off by a serial
killer. As the show begins Vulva Savannah, promising entertainer and
torch-song singer, has just become the latest victim of the Slingback
Killer. The Space Vixens arrive to solve the mystery — interstellar,
super-fashion crime fighters here to save the day by the Power of Disco!
They hit the ground singing with the explosive house anthem Glitter
Boots Saved My Life ... !

SETTING
