Ben Elton's Popcorn (R)

Ben Elton

Phil Donney and Peter Hornjik

Set in Beverly Hills home of Tarantino-style Oscar winning movie director Bruce Delamitri, Popcorn is a satirical comedy thriller with the firing capacity of a hit squad. Think Pulp Fiction meets Natural Born Killers and you’ll just be scratching the surface of this play.

Notorious “Mall Murderers” Wayne and Scout interrupt Bruce's passionate introduction to Brooke Daniels (nude model and actress), and they want more than just an autograph from their cinematic idol…. Wayne intends to use Bruce's "splat fest art" as justification for murder. Events are disrupted with the arrival of Karl (Bruce's producer) and Farrah Delamitri (Bruce's soon to be ex-wife) with spoilt teenage daughter, Velvet. But Wayne means to succeed- whatever the cost.

Ben Elton's "Popcorn" is a play which works on the classic "which came first -- the chicken or the egg" syndrome. That is to say "Do the movies merely reflect the violence in society...or do they, in fact, inspire the violence?". This theme is explored, dissected, and thrown in your face - leaving the final judgement firmly in the minds of the audience.
