Won't Pay \u003c\/i\u003e which, although set in Italy, has an all too familiar ring to it. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHousewives Antonia and Margherita, fed up with high prices in the supermarket, take matters into their own hands and start shoplifting. Keen to keep their light-fingered antics from their husbands, Giovanni and Luigi - not to mention the police - the women are forced to resort to more and more inventive hiding places, and more and more elaborate cover stories, in this legendary comedy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNobel prize winner Dario Fo is Italy's leading contemporary playwright, renowned for his hilarious satires including \u003ci\u003eAccidental Death of an Anarchist\u003c\/i\u003e. He has re-written his classic farce \u003ci\u003eCan't Pay? Won't Pay\u003c\/i\u003e  to take into account the global banking crisis and this translation, by world-leading Fo scholar Joseph Farrell, hints at UK current affairs too, including the credit crunch and MPs' expenses scandal. Although first written in 1970, this updated farce is still very relevant to today's state of affairs.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45084986998935,"sku":"9781408131039","price":1659.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781408131039.webp?v=1767264863","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/low-pay-dont-pay-9781408131039","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
