MAN-BO

Comedy • Physical Theatre
South Australia • SA Premiere
Heroes never die...they just cry deep down inside.

Sam Dugmore (The Latebloomers Scotland! & The Bakers) is back as one of the greatest action heroes of all time, MAN-BO.

MAN-BO must un-earth his ruthless man skills to confront his greatest nemesis...himself. A deadly mission filled with calamity and raw emotion.
One-man vs himself. A feel-bad comedy about heroism.

Join Sam for a high-energy, rip-roaring physical comedy that will blow your socks off!

"Physical comedy at its best." ★★★★ The West Australian
