BROKEN DREAMS

EVERYBODY has dreams. Alfred wants a big plasma TV and Tanya wants to work for the military. But when these dreams get crushed, Alfred ends up eating Coco pops in front of a puppet show that takes place in a cardboard box, and Tanya kills rodents with a fork. Sad, but true.

Smart Casual also have dreams. They dreamt from a young age, of fame and fortune, and integrity and respect; but the crushing realization of being ordinary always sucked them back down to earth. But you know what’s not ordinary, is Shmilk*, sugar-milk – ‘Shmilk puts the shweet back in milk’.

With the help of their sponsors, Smart Casual (Fletcher Jones and Roger David) will take you on a musical comedy journey that delves deep, deep down into their dirtiest, darkest desires. From songs about the benefits of Obsessive Compulsion Disorder, to a flamenco serenade of an audience member, a survey by scarecrows from outer space, and why parents shouldn't name their kids 'Perry', you'll forget all about your own pathetic failures and dream again.

Because Smart Casual know about broken dreams; they spent the last year whoring themselves out for a cheap dollar. But they now have a new dream. A dream to mend all this filth. To start again. They’re gonna move to Poland. Armed with only a beard and guitar, will they 'make-it'?

* ‘Shmilk’ is the official sponsor of Schmart Cashual. With just 2 tablespoons of sugar in every glass, your kids will be saying ‘Shanks for the Shmilk mum’.

'You won’t have to wait long between laughs in the this fast-paced adventure’ ' * * * * THE ADVERTISER
