“Murderously funny” - New York Times “I
nearly died laughing” - Washington Post
Now written into English folklore, the
story centres around the infamous murders of five women in Whitechapel in1888 by
the self-styled “Jack the Ripper”. Set in an East End music hall pub, The Steam
Packet, it is told in real time through the song and satire of the music hall
songs that the Victorians were so good at, but it is also a social comment on
the times, which is still relevant today.
Although it does have its obvious dark
side it will not only give you a good scare that we all love, but will also have
you laughing uncontrollably and send you home with such songs as Saturday night
& Half a Dozen Pints in your head that will be impossible to stop
singing
