      Two bananas wake up duct-taped to the wall of a prestigious art gallery and meet their maker. An audience, two bananas, three artists, (two actors). Will anyone get paid?

      Birthed from the burnt-out brains of Katie Burson and Georgie Llewellyn, How to Art is a physical theatre-clown-fruit mash-up about making art, surviving, and chasing mass a-peel. Jesters, collectors, and narcissists reign in this low-brow exploration of the cost of creativity and the art of living.

      In an industry that values youth, perfection and mass production, can two bruised bananas go the distance? Dripping in paint and desperation, can they find their place before they’re put up for sale?

      Find out how starving these artists truly are.
      Watch out, Picasso.

      Presented by Ratbags, produced by Charlie Underhill.
