“We've seen some sacrilegious Last Supper parodies in these heretical times, but the Wau Wau Sisters' inspired new show takes the cake. With an inventive cast of characters, and in a retelling like no other, the Wau Waus answer everyone's favorite question of the '90s: WWJD? The response is both shocking and delightful as they turn the final repast on its head with plot twists and characters the likes of which even DaVinci would never have depicted. Disciples of the duo's irreverent performances know to expect burlesque moves and circus routines delivered alongside the brazen storyline.”
THE WAU WAU SISTERS ARE BACK for the real Last Supper

The Wau Wau Sisters return to PS122 for their only show in NYC this Summer to conjure a funny, raucous, ridiculous reinvention of the Last Supper - complete with 12 Disciples, umpteen cocktails, endless fun and fearless abandon!! The Wau Wau Sisters, New York City's bravest and bawdiest duo, invite one and all in to their garden of unearthly delights and debauchery and deliver an hour of profanity and divinity in THEIR ONLY SHOW IN NYC THIS SUMMER! Straddling (literally) the hilarious gap between religious and related, performance art and party, busking and burlesque this show is sure to make you want to convert to their cunning cult! (say that five times fast) Who says you're not allowed to love EVERYBODY?! Let the Wau Wau Sisters show you the way! With a defiant mix of hell-raising humor and mesmerizing mayhem, watch catholic school girls turned born-again Country Western stars gather dandy's, derelicts and disciples along the way, and build to a bacchanalian finale, A LAST SUPPER full of saviours, savants and showgirls!
