Australian Premiere

"The best animal documentary!"
"It was just so funny!"

Audience quotes, Ferment Fortnight

Presented by: Clownfish

Clownfish are a Bristol-based company formed by two recent Lecoq graduates, Jess Clough-MacRae and Jonathan Tilley. We are inspired by the miraculous and the mundane and find humour in detail. We use physical theatre, mime and clowning to create joyful, ridiculous theatre.

Clownfish are supported by the Bristol Old Vic Ferment Artists Development Scheme and Circomedia and are in association with the First Round International Creative Platform.
