The Establishment: Le Bureau de Strange

Comedy • Physical Theatre
Australian Premiere
Side-splitting, stiff-upper-lipped hilarity from critically-acclaimed UK comedy duo Dan Lees and Neil Frost. This is classic British absurdity at its best.

Dressed in bowler hats and mismatching suits, these charming and eccentric English gents bring the belly laughs with a mix of slapstick, clowning and quick-fired wit. The Establishment's unique and infectiously funny style will plunge you into a world of the absurd and leave your ribs well and truly tickled. Jolly good, chaps.

"Masters of the Pythonesque gigglefest" - The Scotsman
"One of the most outrageously funny hours imaginable" British Theatre Guide
"A fast-paced, multidimensional masterclass in comedy" Ed Fest Mag
★★★★★ "One of the best shows I've seen...top class" Mumble Comedy

    An unrivalled charm as well as unpredictable comedy, with the duo easily getting everyone onboard with their brand of chaos. - Connor Jervis-Hay, Fest Mag
