It's really a super fun show. The plot design is exquisite, easy to understand and interesting. The two actors will especially drive the atmosphere of the scene, and the scene is very lively. I really want to give a big compliment to both actors: you guys have amazing control over your body! I've never seen a stairs up and down performance as good as yours! This sequence of you going up and down the stairs really stunned all the audience at the scene! I hope to see more wonderful performances from you in the future! I look forward to seeing you in Edinburgh next year! I will also travel to Japan in the future, and I hope to have the opportunity to see your performances at that time!

Totally brilliant. Not only are these two actors extremely gifted physical theatre artists, but they have a fantastic gift of playing with their audience that keeps them engaged and in stitches.

This is a show for the whole family, and one that is very silly, very charming and frankly unforgettable.
