After six years of austerity, is it even possible to be an artist and make enough money for luxuries like bread? Show Me The Money is a funny, inspirational show by multimedia artist Paula Varjack looking at how artists manage to support their creative dreams.

Using a blend of documentary-style interviews with live performance, Varjack lifts the lid on what artists do to make ends meet. In doing so, Show Me The Money provides a painfully honest, yet ultimately optimistic portrait of life in contemporary Britain as government cuts bite.

Show me the Money has been developed at Jackdaw Theatre, Battersea Arts Centre, Bikeshed Theatre and Rich Mix supported by the National Lottery through Arts Council England
