About Idiots Assemble: Spitting Image the Musical

IDIOTS ASSEMBLE: Spitting Image The Musical is a show that will leave you wondering if you've accidentally stumbled into an alternate dimension.

But wait, there's more! Watch in awe as Putin and Xi, the ultimate power duo, watch from their premium seats in the stalls. Are they just out for a night on the town, or do they have more sinister intentions? Only time will tell! Oh, and be warned, - this show is not for the faint of heart. It contains jokes that are extremely naughty.

About Spitting Image 

Spitting Image is a satirical TV show that features puppet caricatures of famous politicians and celebrities. It first aired in the 1980s and was recently revived in 2020. The show is known for its irreverent and often crude humour and is not afraid to take aim at anyone, regardless of their status or reputation. The puppet versions of famous figures are often exaggerated and grotesque, adding to the overall comedic effect. With sketches featuring everyone from Donald Trump to Greta Thunberg, Spitting Image is a hilarious and often outrageous take on current events and popular culture.
