Two thieves attempt to hide stolen money in Joe Orton’s classic, scandalous, dark farce, Loot, playing at Queens Theatre Hornchurch from February 19 to March 7. A darkly funny, biting satire of the Roman Catholic Church, social attitudes to death, and the integrity of the police force, Loot follows young thieves Dennis and Hal, who rob the bank next door to the funeral parlour where Dennis works and hide the stolen money in Hal’s mother’s coffin.
