If a unique, provocative solo performance featuring theatre, comedy, clowning and cabaret is what you are looking for, then Anita Luna THE DIVA’s show Full of Shit, running at London’s Pen Theatre on 10 and 11 February 2023, may be the perfect solution.
Watch award-winning Italian cabaret artist Anita Giovannini’s hilarious trip from one failure to another only to find out that we are like lotus flowers: from the mud we rise up from within only through our sense of humour. To happily fail is the path to succeed.
It’s a love affair: in London, Anita found her artistic heart and the Londoners are the right spark to soar to the stars. So, here we are and we are all Full of Shit!
Winner of the Judges Choice Award (Galway Fringe) in 2019 and the Best Online Live Performance (Paris Fringe) one year later Full of Shit is performed by Anita Giovannini and co-written and directed by Giovanna Manfredini.
“There’s a unique and brave exchange between me and my darling audience. We are like passionate lovers: We toy with each other, there’s a huge complicity. My shows are more like parties in which I’m the master of ceremony and my guests are my amazing flower children.”
Anita continues: “So, guys, join me. I promise, I’m gonna talk to you without filters and maybe, and I say maybe, if you’re lucky enough… you’ll see some half-light on some superb naked flesh!”

Anita Luna THE DIVA’s show Full of Shit will run at London’s Pen Theatre on 10 and 11 February 2023
