If You Like Piña Coladas with Bum Notes

If You Like Piña Coladas with Bum Notes

Warning: This show contains romance, rampant foolishness and at least two bottoms with saxophones attached.

Piña and Coladada are on a heroic quest for love. They are gloriously underqualified.

Guided by Bum Notes, a musical duo with bottoms for heads and a remarkable talent for rear-end jazz - they stumble and spin through a delightfully ridiculous world of clowning, courtship, vogueing, improbable dancing and spectacularly bad decision-making. Every step of their adventure is fuelled by boundless optimism, questionable logic and the unwavering belief that love is worth looking very, very silly for.

Inspired by the gleeful anarchy of Spike Milligan, the physical comedy of silent cinema and the mischievous spirit of Commedia dell'Arte, this wildly interactive show invites audiences to become willing accomplices in the chaos.

Expect audience participation, unexpected props, enthusiastic "ooohs" and "aaahs", increasingly frantic applause and a spectacularly silly finale involving a classical statue. The less you know, the better.

A delightfully daft 30 minute comedy for anyone who enjoys visual humour, interactive theatre and embracing the absurd.
