New York City's bravest and bawdiest duo, The Wau Wau Sisters return to Adelaide this Fringe at the Garden of Unearthly Delights, to conjure a funny, raucous, ridiculous reinvention of The Last Supper - complete with twelve disciples, umpteen cocktails, endless fun and fearless abandon.
Straddling (literally) the hilarious gap between religious and related, performance art and party, busking and burlesque, profanity and divinity, this 2-gal circus contorts and careens to a bacchanalian finale that will make you want to convert to their cunning cult!
With a defiant mix of hell-raising humor and mesmerizing mayhem, watch catholic schoolgirls turned born-again Country Western stars gather dandy's, derelicts and disciples along the way as they recreate A LAST SUPPER full of saviours, savants and showgirls!
irreverent, sacrilegious, foul-mouthed and uninhibited New York Times
they turn the audience on with wit, humour and a cunning array of stunts Time Out, NY
