The Woman Who Cooked Her Husband (expired event)

It's advertising was sensationally banned from Stirling Council’s website back in July – but The Woman Who Cooked Her Husband is back for another show in the same council area.

After previous sell-out shows in Yokine (and a quick sojourn to the Swan Valley), the outrageous black comedy is now being served up at Tuart Hill's Lucafe Italian Cafe on October 17. Directed by Jane Sherwood for Much Productions, Debbie Isitt's The Woman Who Cooked Her Husband is the story of Kenneth and Hilary who have been married nearly 20 years. As middle age encroaches, Kenneth finds himself in the arms of another woman and, at first, his new lover Laura seems to represent everything missing from his life. But there's just one little problem: she can`t cook. Kenneth mourns the loss of Sunday roasts and the comforts of a settled life so, when Hilary invites Kenneth and Laura over for dinner, he readily accepts – unaware of what tasty treats Hilary has on the menu. The Woman Who Cooked Her Husband plays at 5pm, Sunday, October 3. Tickets are $80 for the show plus share plates of antipasto, pane, insalata, pizza, pasta, risotto and sweets – book at tinyurl.com/womanlucafe Note: the show has adult themes and is not suitable for children. Lucafe Italian Café is at 132 Stoneham Street, Tuart Hill.
