By Joe Sellman-Leava and Dylan Howells
Directed by Katharina Reinthaller

Joe Sellman-Leava and Dylan Howells embark on a quest to uncover how the economy wins elections and why the force that dominates our lives is so bloody complicated!

Armed with brown bags, an old board game and a pinch of theatrical magic, Joe and Dylan calculate how their lives how they’ve been shaped by the economies they grew up in.

Developed with and directed by internationally acclaimed Katharina Reinthaller, and produced by Worklight Theatre, It’s the Economy Stupid is a bold new show from the Fringe First winning creators of Labels and Fanboy.
