In celebration of the life of famous playwright Peter Shaffer MADC will be presenting a Peter Shaffer Double Bill - White Liars/Black Comedy at the MADC Clubrooms directed by Stephanie Zammit Borg and Franco Rizzo respectively.
White Liars
A fateful encounter between a, down and out, fortune teller, a rock musician and his agent. The agent bribes Baroness Lemberg to fake some hocus pocus over a crystal ball, ostensibly to discourage the musician from pursuing his girlfriend. The trickery entangles each of them in a dense web of mendacity.
Starring: Audrey Scerri, Rambert Attard and Jonathan Dunn
Black Comedy
Struggling sculptor Brindsley Miller and his fiance, Carol, are having a party with the aim of impressing Carol's bombastic father, Colonel Melkett, and millionaire Georg Bamberger. They hope the two men might purchase some of Brindsley's sculptures. Without permission, they have borrowed the furniture and effects of their fussy neighbor, Harold, to make their own flat more presentable. Just before the guests arrive, the main fuse blows, plunging the flat into darkness…………
Starring: Jovan Pisani, Kate De Cesare, Francesca Briffa, Stephen Oliver, Joe Depasquale, Joanna Lanna, Daniel Walters and Alan Attard
