About the show
Scally-wankers is an adult musical comedy and interactive show at Theatre 1, presented by Surely Not Productions. Join Davvy Scabies on a tongue-in-cheek, panto-inspired adventure featuring unhelpful heroes, questionable magic and lots of audience engagement. The show features re-written songs and unbelievably crude jokes in a riotous voyage built around nonsense, naughtiness and narrative. Whether you are here for the laughs or the story, there is something to grab onto — pun intended.
Why see this show?
A panto for adults that leans fully into the crude, the chaotic and the participatory. If you want unhelpful heroes, bad magic and re-written songs in a riotous 50 minutes, this is your adventure.
