Literature! Literature! Literature! It might not rhyme with anything but it’s still very important. Garry Starr is back and he’s hell-bent on saving books from extinction by performing every Penguin Classic novel ever written. In an hour. Mostly naked (but with flippers).
Comic wunderkind Starr takes us on a literary adventure through the world’s most iconic works of fiction. From The Little Prince to Moby Dick and everything in between, nothing is safe from being lampooned with the utmost nincompoopery.

Reviews
In Review
“Now is the time to see [Damien Warren-Smith's] work; when it is punk, outrageous, low-budget, cutting-edge, and incomparably funny.”
Upside Adelaide
“An absolute must-see for anyone who loves literature, comedy, or watching a man in flippers save (or destroy?) the Western literary canon.”
Hi Fi Way
“Just pure mayhem and chaos… literature-ly.
the intrigue starts from go and doesn’t end until WOAH!”
