The Simple Life & Death @ The Pleasance (until 07 Dec)

Paris and Nicole are back, but things arent so simple anymore. The Simple Life & Death sees the iconic noughties duo return to the farm, but they arent the only ones. A mysterious murderer is on the loose and your favourite airhead heiresses have just one night to catch the killer! But when morning comes, who will be dead and who will be sliving? Writer Shane ShayShay Konno (Mulan Rouge & The Witches of Oz) teams up with comedian Fizz Sinclair (4.2 million likes on TikTok) in this brand new campy, glam murder mystery, featuring a whole host of recognisable suspects. 'Loves it' Paris Hilton (yes, really). Praise for previous work: 'Colourful, filthy and funny' Stage (for Mulan Rouge) 'A stroke of genius' Reviews Hub (for Mulan Rouge) 'A true must-see' Theatre & Other Things (for Mulan Rouge) 'A joyful experience' Broadway World (for The Witches of Oz) 'Delightfully camp' Lost in Theatreland (for The Witches of Oz) Is there a dress code? Well obvi theres a dress code, divas! Step back into the early 2000s and live your Y2K lives. We want to see double denim, velour tracksuits, pink (lots of pink), low rise jeans, pop star glam, rhinestones, mini skirts, cargo pants and baby tees. I mean, you totally get the vibe, diva.
