Tax Deductible’s founders, Cpt Chris Snelson & Rev Lewis Ironside (both legal titles), began writing together in 2005. Since then they have progressed from single words to entire sentences. Using these elementary rules of syntax they shuffled together ’Carbon Fever’ for the Edinburgh Fringe festival 2006 which was met with critical and financial success.
Their podcast series, 'The Finger Puppet Autopsies' are available free to download on their website, new episode COMING SOON.
A tour 'The Absinthe MOnologues', film project and ’The Complete History of Religion’ are things to look out for from Tax Deductible.

Tax Deductible's Interests
General
'Extreme Hopping', Selling Kitchens, Managing Pubs, Auto-Fellatio, Quizacomonopotron, Colouring In, Pirates, Tea, Absinthe, Hardcore Thorn and dogs, forming new starsigns such as 'Badgertarius'.
In the beginning there was the idea.
And it truly was shite...
However, after many long months of unemployment and indifference there flourished from this apathy, like a fungal spore upon a dung heap, a theatre company. We named it Florence as that was our favourite nurse at the time... alas Florence Theatre Company had already shotgunned that one, thusly Tax Deductible Theatre Company came into being, and it has been coming ever since. we aim to take the banality of the everyday and insert robust and swarthy quantities of pleasure into every available orifice.
Tackling themes such as the Gods, Apocalypse, Stem Cell Research, the afterlife, the environment, nationalism and death - all with a healthy dose of knob gags.
Alternative theatre and alternative issues. We do what others don't, we say what others can't and we drink what nobody should. Tax Deductible Theatre means: big issues with big laughs.
Original comedy has never been quite so... original.

Thanks for the add--and for the really great work you seem to be doing. I look forward to someday seeing a show so that I can stop imagining what it must be like from only having looked at the pictures.
Well...that sounds disturbingly familiar, doesn't it? Perhaps seeing one of your shows for the first time will be less traumatic than that other rite of passage...but somehow, I'm not certain. :)

REMEMBER:
"Each and every day we start with a blank canvas. It is all the actions that we take that are the strokes painting the beautiful portrait to our life. - the black and white landscape colored in by the emotions of our day." ~Henry Weinacker
YOU are the artist of your week. Here's to creating a beautiful masterpiece!
"If you could go through life with just one emotion, let it be Belief - Belief in others, Belief in yourself, and Belief in Someone greater than us. After all, it is the lack of belief that is the real root to one's hesistance in life. BELIEF trumps Fear." ~ Henry
Book Release 2008
I hope you have a blessed finish to the week. Keep smiling every second and remember that Belief is one of the most beautiful gifts you can give another person.
The boy's and girl's name Brogan ..b-ro-gan.. is of Irish and Gaelic origin, and its meaning is "sturdy shoe". From the word "brogue", which has come to mean the Gaelic accent.
