Strength and humour, agility and laughter, the whole spectrum of emotions is here

about the production

In this beautiful laugh out loud circus show two comedic characters play cat and mouse: clowning, clobbering and outdoing each other in more and more extreme acts. Like two brothers fighting over a favourite toy, they drive each other crazy in a lunatic loop of outrageous comedy that becomes increasingly absurd. The balls get bigger, the competition more frenzied, as they leap higher, spin longer and flip faster in this slick and furious madcap hour. A real stand out circus comedy show.
