Casanova
Lover! Hero! Clown! A man who relies entirely on his wits - and his incredibly alluring face and body. Join award-winning physical comedian Jon Tilley (“Magnetic” The Scotsman) for a hilarious ride through the ridiculous, in an anarchic, comic retelling of the myth of real-life ultimate lover and original rom com leading man, Casanova!
After appearing in smash-hit fringe favourites ‘The Bakers’ (★★★★★ Fringefeed), Strictly Barking (★★★★½ Fourth Wall), Scotland! (★★★★ The West Australian), and Attenborough and his Animals (★★★★★ The Advertiser), Jon Tilley won the Prague Fringe Comedy Award for his first solo show ‘Old Man’. Now he returns to Adelaide with his new creation.
