Loot

By Joe Orton
Directed by David Shirley

'I suppose I'm a believer in Original Sin. People are profoundly bad, but irresistibly funny' - Joe Orton

Stylish, witty and highly provocative, Joe Orton’s Loot helped establish his reputation as the succès du scandale of 1960’s British theatre. What begins as a somber family occasion quickly descends into a grotesque and anarchic assault on traditional ideas about sexuality, religion and the law.
