SACRED FOOLS | MAINSTAGE 1998

May 14 - June 20, 1998

Synopsis:
A documentary for the stage, The Swine Show chronicles the life of the legendary Swine, a man who could live on beer and cigarettes alone. He was perhaps the biggest star ever seen at the box office and on television, and this is his story. From his humble beginnings with the Chicken Brothers Sideshow on Wheels through his training at the Upper Lip Performance Academy (ULPA), his years of indentured servitude with the fabulously wealthy Mrs. Gouge, his subsequent rise to stardom followed by his tragic fall followed by his inspiring redemption, Swine consistently bent over backwards just to entertain. This is his story. But we've already said that.
