Billy Barrett has written a hilariously-filthy, shamefully-cruel musical comedy. Think Oscar Wilde meets Edgar Allan Poe! Inspired by Le Theatre du Grand-Guignol and the Victorian weekly serial booklets, The Penny Dreadfuls, Virtuous Flock will take audiences back to the era of flamboyant melodrama and lurid gothic horror. Virtuous Flock tells the gruesome tale of the murder of three women at the hands of Penny Dreadful. Penny, an abused child from an Irish convent boarding school, takes revenge on the women who are left in her late father's dilapidated mansion; the stepmother, the maid and the mistress. Dark, dirty and disturbingly funny with live music and songs, this is the blackest comedy you will see this year. It breaks taboos and makes you wonder how depravity could be so horrifically humorous.
