Unseen Theatre Company presents The Australian Premiere of:- Terry Pratchett’s “Making Money” Adapted by Stephen Briggs, re-worked for Unseen Theatre Company by Pamela Munt It’s an offer you can’t refuse. Who would not wish to be the man in charge of ‘The Ankh-Morpork Royal Mint? It’s a job for life. But, as former con man Moist Von Lipwig is learning, life is not necessarily for long. The Chief Cashier is almost certainly a vampire, every day he has to take the Chairman for “walkies” and there’s something nameless in the cellar. Oh, and it turns out that the Royal Mint runs at a loss. According to Moist, that’s what happens when you base the value of your monetary system on gold. So just what should he base it on? Potatoes? Dibbler’s famous pies? Golems? Or maybe something as simple as trust? In fact, Moist is thinking it should be based on trust. But that could be difficult when he is about to be exposed as a fraud. On the bright side, the Assassin’s Guild might get him first. In fact a lot of people want him dead. Everywhere he looks he’s making enemies when what he should be doing is making money.
