Debbie McMahon and the Grand Guignolers return to Los Angeles with another of their signature theatre pieces filled with mayhem, murder, the macabre...and of course lots and lots of blood!
The time its the 1920s as the Guignolers and their audience depart on a luxury cruise to Shanghai, the most debaucherous city of its era! Once there you'll meet Sing Song Girls (Chinese geishas), brawling gangsters and a Madame with a rather grim hobby of collecting human hands! And if the victims happen to still be alive when the hand is "collected", a little opium should lessen the pain. Or will it? You'll find out for yourself as the entire operation happens live onstage! Did we mention that this show is inappropriate for children (or the faint of heart)?
