A toe-tapping, germ-spreading extravaganza where the laughter is as infectious as Mary’s meals – the latest comedy musical from Living Spit (Six Wives of Henry VIII, The Passion of Living Spit, Adolf & Winston)


Irish immigrant. Cook. Amiable host. Killer?

1906. New York City. Talented cook Mary Mallon takes a job preparing delicious meals for yet another high society family, and yet again they begin to fall ill and die.
Coincidence? Mary thinks so.
And now she’s put all that nonsense behind her.
She’s cooking three courses for a very special guest tonight. YOU! 
That is unless Health Inspector and sanitation expert George Soper can stop her before it’s too late…

Prepare for a toe-tapping, germ-spreading extravaganza where the laughter is as infectious as Mary’s meals. Featuring live cooking on stage from Stu Mcloughlin as the much-maligned Mary Mallon and Lucy Tuck as the germaphobic George Soper, There’s Something About Typhoid Mary is a contagiously entertaining journey through the dark and sinister world of the killer cook, Typhoid Mary, told with Living Spit’s trademark wit, song and silliness.

With live original music, deliciously tempting food which you can really eat (if you dare), gory deaths a-plenty, puerile puppetry and sackfuls of cross-dressing crassness, this promises to be a feverishly funny feast of fun for some of the family. Just don’t mention the T-word.

“Pure chaos and hilarity…the audience were in fits of giggles and cheered their approval throughout.”
Bristol 24/7 on The Passion Of Living Spit

“The humour is madcap, honest and clever and the music genius.”
British Theatre Guide on Living Spit’s Elizabeth I: Virgin on the Ridiculous

What a glorious show it is … you will not find a funnier show this year.”
Stage Talk Magazine on Living Spit’s Adolf & Winston
