Description
Wes Anderson meets Hitchcock meets spaghetti western in this multi award-winning, intercontinental, inter-genre, cinematic caper of accusations, accidents and accents. Roger, a Frenchman in 1960's New York, has followed the same routine for years, until a minor delay saves him from an explosion. Throwing his ordered world into chaos, Roger chases his would-be assassins around the globe. Raucously funny and endlessly inventive, this Lecoq-trained company delights and stuns with live original music and virtuosic acrobatics in this fast-paced, Offies-nominated whodunnit. 'Razor-sharp' ***** (Everything-Theatre.co.uk). 'Stunning' ***** (365Bristol.com). Winner: LET/Greenwich Award, 2020.Please note that while all media gallery content is provided by verified members of the event, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society does not review or approve this content before it is posted.

This was a fabulous show, by 5 high energy skilled performers, who held nothing back, in their quest to entertain. A great story, with laughs all the way, and amazing physical agility. I would watch these people again. I suggest you make the effort, too.

Brilliant! Inventive, funny, incredibly skillful physical theatre to tell a "spy story" with a human heart and a hundred twists and turns. I've been to over 20 shows in six days and this was absolutely the best. Note to company: I hope you've filmed it, there are so many moments to capture.
