Eat the Rich
In direct opposition to the advice of Jonathan Swift, (whose 'Modest Proposal' of 1729, suggested the Irish poor sell their children as livestock to earn a crust...he was joking!), an anarchistic black comedy of questionable taste from the Comic Strip Troupe. The jet-set are in big trouble when a motley group of the less-privileged get hungry for the good life. With cameos from Paul McCartney and Koo Stark and music by Motorhead. Cast also includes Jimmy Fagg, Lanah Pelley and Nosher Powell.
