The Bean Counter
Theatre and Physical Theatre
• Physical Theatre
World Premiere
Roll up, roll up! Have a guess in this year's Adelaide Jellybean Counting
Competition. The Bean Counter is here and ready to count. Will you win? A
charming character comedy about an Official with some unusual counting
methods. A fun, thoughtful piece about how seriously we take competitions
from a 'jawbreakingly hilarious' (Rip It Up) clown.
