A theatre show for children and their adults.
Jon Hicks with Mat Rudkin & Frank the Dog.

A quest to make amends, in a magical world of Mysterium!

A magical, silent, physical, comedy fable, of few words, about perseverance & achievement. Jon, the chaotic student/caretaker of Frank the Dog, breaks a precious artefact and has to redeem himself through a series of bizarre, yet playful, challenges and games. If successful Jon will acquire the status of ‘master’, repair the artefact and redeem himself.

Along the way Jon is hampered in his quest; with set-backs, twists, turns, and the interference of the sinister Cyprian Londt. Funny, fast paced, stylish, ‘clowning’, set in a ‘home-made’, magical, world full of contraptions, illusions and mystifying objects.

From variety, Outdoor Arts and Slightly Fat Features legend Jon Hicks, with long term collaborator Matt Rudkin (Incovenient Spoof). Directed by Petra Massey (SpyMonkey).
