Sam Dugmore (The Latebloomers Scotland! & The Bakers) is locked and loaded as one of the greatest action heroes of all time, MANBO.

MANBO must un-earth his ruthless man skills to confront his greatest nemesis...himself. A deadly mission filled with calamity, 80's workout montage, explosions, evil Russians, suppressed raw emotion, and a dog called Fluffy.
One-man vs himself.

Join Sam for a high-energy, rip-roaring physical comedy that will blow your socks off and leave you wanting more!
