A play called "Thorough Search"staged in a bathroom of a theatre in Brazil has proven a great success (click here for the article). The bathroom can only hold 30 spectators, but actors say they have had to do extra shows every week due to it's success.

Meanwhile, reporters of "The Spot" have come up with information that George Michael is to claim that the play is of his authorship and that he has been trying to get it going in London public toilets. ;-D
