Have you ever wanted something so badly only to find that when you got it you didn't want it after all? Imagine that "something" is a job, and that job is being the Pope!Benedict the Ninth (born 1012 AD) was the only person in history to be Pope more than once—and now he’s back for another try. In this actual historical tale told through sketch, storytelling, and a dubious Italian accent, discover how an 18-year-old vapid gay party boy became the most powerful man in Europe... three times.
Pedro is a cast member of Channel Ten's "Thank God You're Here" and a key player in the award-nominated Soothplayers, known for 'Completely Improvised Potter,' 'Completely Improvised Shakespeare,' and 'Completely Improvised Survivor,' which have wowed sold-out crowds across Australia. He also performs with The Big HOO-HAA!, Melbourne's longest-running and best-loved weekly improv show.
Directed by the award winning and very funny, Andy Balloch. Produced by Soothplayers
Please note the Saturday 4pm performance will be a relaxed performance
