Description

You're invited: twin orphans, The Creepy Boys, are throwing their 13th birthday party. It will have everything. Games. Gifts. Possibly Satan. Probably Cake. 'Blisteringly anarchic and devilishly clever' ***** (InDaily.com.au). Combining 2000s sexy songs, satanic rituals, and Willam Dafoe, these horny little boys do whatever it takes to make their birthday dreams come true (think Oh, Hello meets those twins from The Shining, meets My Super Sweet 16). From the creators of Something in the Water (Winner – Best Theatre, Adelaide Fringe 2021) comes a bizarre comedy with just a splash of the occult.

Terrific physical comedy. It's gross out, tasteless, manic and very funny!

Incredible show. Very funny and completely unpredictable. Would recommend to anyone.

What a deliciously creepy, funny show! Creepy Boys is over-the-top, dark and weird humour that is the epitome of Fringe theatre. The Scantily Clad performers bring raw, powerful energy to their roles and the script but also slip in many hilarious and improvised interactions with the audience. It's 60 minutes of non-stop laughter. The fact that the play runs in the old surgical demonstration room of the former Veterinary College adds to the creepiness. A perfect, must-see show!

North West End UK (4/5 stars) 116 days ago

Energetic, passionate, professional and often very funny, this is a show that defies summary with its own buzzwords (the show is comedy, horror, nostalgia, LGBT+, to name a few) and deserves to be seen.

This riotous hour of devil worship, bickering and cavorting is a joyful celebration of the naïveté and wickedness of the teenage brain.
