the boy with tape on his face
21 - 23 October 2010

Mime with noise, stand-up with no talking – drama with no acting. This show speaks for itself.

Combine the sheer, childlike absurdness of Vic Reeves with the deft, physical intonation of Hugh Laurie and the genius of Charlie Chaplin and you have Sam Wills: The Boy with Tape on His Face.

'Great vaudevillian routines reinvented and invested with real personality'
**** The Guardian

This exciting one-man show from New Zealand is attracting attention across the globe, racking up awards for 'Best Show', 'Best Show Concept', 'People's Choice', and a nomination for 'Best Newcomer' at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival.

Drawing on a heritage that includes silent film, mime, magic, puppetry, Motown and the films of Patrick Swayze, The Boy With Tape On His Face is a pensive, curious soul approaching every object and audience member as a potential friend - or plaything. Shoes sing, empty dresses dance and electrical tape blossoms into roses. creating a world of possibilities where the only certainty is laughter.
