Payday Party
Being broke, Welsh and talented never looked so fierce!
Food prices up. Fuel prices up. Water bills up. Car tax up. National Insurance up. In a cost of living crisis, what do you do to survive? Eat, heat? Or throw a Payday Party!!! 6 artists share their real life stories and talents in the hope of getting paid by you, the audience.
Payday Party is the most glamorous LEGAL political party you will go to.
Song, dance, rap, spoken word and live music are thrown into the cauldron of despair to cook up a survival cake Marie-Antoinette would be proud of.
