DONE TO DEATH, BY JOVE!

Theatre and Physical Theatre • Comedy
United Kingdom • Australian Premiere

Created and performed by Gavin Robertson & Nicholas Collett

From the 2020 team that brought you 'BOND!' and 'Spitfire Solo' - now The British Detective Genre – gone wrong!

A cast of six bring a group of suspects and Sleuths together to discover whodunnit, and how… Except… four of the actors are stuck by the side of the road in the broken-down van, and only those two knights of the Theatre – Sir Gavin and Sir Nicholas - have managed to get to the venue… but ‘the show must go on’… Holmes and Watson, Poirot and Miss Marple join forces in a whirlwind of fast costume changes and misdirected acting hiccups. Even the set’s gone missing!

Warning: Contains hats!

Presented by: Gavin Robertson & Nicholas Collett in Association with Virtually Creative

Both artists are resident in the UK and work in Theatre, writing, producing, performing and touring their own original devised productions. Although existing as separate entities, Gavin and Nicholas have a unique artistic relationship: Aside from their separate historical list of productions, going back as far as the mid-nineteen-eighties, they have been working together since 2009, when they collaborated on Gavin’s play ‘THE SIX-SIDED MAN’.

As a result of that initial collaboration, each has now created solo shows, with the other working as both Dramaturg, collaborator and Director.
Currently DONE TO DEATH BY JOVE, BOND, THE GHOST OF A SMILE are touring.
