Burnside Players Inc. Present
Ben Elton's Popcorn

So, what's your media doing to you?

Written By: Ben Elton
Director: Glenn Vallen

It's the afternoon of Oscar night and Tarantino-esque film director Bruce Delamitri is frustrated - he can't understand why the media despise his art. In his eyes his films don't inspire violence, they reflect it - in a stylish and ironic way. But little does Bruce know that he is about to be paid a visit by Wayne Hudson and his girfriend Scout - spree killers dubbed the 'Mall Murderers' by the media. The result is a brilliant, tense, darkly hilarious look at film violence, society, popular culture and the media.

A combination of Ben Elton's always-biting social commentary and witty dialogue.

Contains frequent strong language and adult concepts.
