May 2010 DRAMA Abstract Satisfaction Theatre Artistry As the Butterflies Melt By Ruth Tumshee The latest installment in Ruth Tumshee's Flexible Hairpiece series is bound to leave audiences rolling in the aisles. That's right, the show starts with the sudden release of a toxic gas that has so far induced debilitating fits in 95% of the people in attendance. The lucky few left not paralysed are treated to a non-stop roller-coaster ride of fun, laughter and a vague sense of creeping disaffection as the play's central character, Sack, endeavours to conjure up a convincing portrait of life as a freelance abattoir investigator in the 21st century. Inspired by the works of Sophocles. "A little too insistent for my tastes." Idi Amin
