Brainchild


Archived show
This show is from a previous year's festival
Award-winning show Brainchild explores the big questions and comes to some astounding conclusions. Constantly veering from the profound to ridiculous, combining clowning, eccentric dance and musical mayhem, whilst introducing inspirational and bizarre characters: an alcoholic cheese loving pope, a jazz prophet and a lonely cowboy with only a goldfish for a friend.
★★★★“Downright hilarious.. comedy that deserves to be commended for challenging the boundaries and creating an unforgettable experience” – Broadway Baby
“I learn from Dan, he is the real deal” – Phil Burgers (Dr Brown), Barry award & Edinburgh Comedy winner
Directed by Mick Barnfather, who has performed with Complicite and directed shows for acclaimed theatre companies such as Peepolykus, Told By An Idiot and Penny Dreadful.
The show won the Judges Award for Theatre at the Mimetic Festival in London in 2014. Dan trained in physical theatre and clowning at the prestigious Ecole Philippe Gaulier in Paris.
