MADC presents the hilarious comedy WONDERLAND WIVES by Buddy Thomas, directed by Francesca Briffa, featuring a superb cast - Pia Zammit, Jean Pierre Busuttil, Joe Depasquale, Kate De Cesare, Stefan Farrugia and Stephen Oliver. This fractured fairy tale for mature audiences with very immature taste is certainly not to be missed this APRIL at the MADC Playhouse, St Venera.

Cincerella’s Prince Charming is serving ten years in the pen. Belle’s house is overrun with little monsters, Alice has been hitting the caterpillar’s pipe a little too hard lately, and Snow White’s husband has shacked up with the three little pigs. When Briar Rose comes home from rehab with the face of a beauty, and Charming returns from prison with the libido of a beast, the desperate housewives of the magical kingdom are forced to grapple with princely infidelity and poison apples. This fractured fairy tale brings an arched brow and an eye for dark, sexy hilarity to the Ever After that keeps going long after the Happily fades away.

Age rating: 14+
