Synopsis: | Odin had a penchant for disguising himself as an ash tree and going among the humans on earth. Thor took revenge on a thieving ice giant by dressing up as a goddess and marrying him. Balder the indestructible allowed his friends to amuse themselves by throwing hard objects at him. In a world full of such strange and fearsome gods as these, what chance does a mere mortal have to make his mark? I Am A Viking tells the epic tale of a man who gave it his best shot. Directed by leading clown practitioner Gerry Flanagan, be prepared for an exhilarating collision of clowning, theatre, slapstick, and bizarre puppetry. | |||||

Synopsis: | A story of human survival in the face of absurdity. Be amazed by the daring prison escapes, gasp at the deadly guillotine, and wonder at the wise mans constantly moving beard. Beresford Jones is having a very bad day. He's just been arrested and no one will tell him why. Now he must negotiate the torture mad policemen, over zealous librarians, pop singing lawyers to prove his innocence, avoid execution, win his freedom and the girl. Gonzo Moose is joined by Angus Barr (Ridiculusmus) and Clare Thomson (Piggy Nero) in this fast paced and thrilling production full of hilarious verbal and physical slapstick, creating a deliriously irreverent and anarchic world where anything can happen and frequently does. | |||||
