On March 17th we had our Spring Scratch featuring three pieces of work-in-progress.
Bro Fitness
By Electric Cabaret
Performed by Richard Jones and Wayne Miller
Chastened by the modern obsession with heath, Wayne and Richard decide to explore all aspects of fitness. Diving head on into a brave new world the un-dynamic duo soon realise there’s more to this world than meets the eye. Selflessly prepared to lead the way, dynamic duo BroFitness will divulge their unique teachings on the matter of ‘The Hunt for Perfection’.
Bro Fitness is a work in progress that bring together various ideas for two characters the duo have been working on.
Electric Cabaret specialises in the practical application of Mime, Clown, Living Statue, Street Theatre, Stiltwalking and the blend of these disciplines.
