Professor Bumm's Story Machine
Available for touring internationally throughout 2007
Professor Bumm and his assistant Doctor Whee invite you to the unveiling of his latest invention in this crackpot comedy of made-up madness. Mayhem, mirth and mess are guaranteed as the two eggheads race to turn words and ideas from the audience into new stories, hopefully with the help of their unpredictable new machine.
This improvised comedy show from The Black Sheep is not suitable for the under sevens. It played a West End season in September 2006 and has sold out two Edinburgh festival seasons.
The Black Sheep are also touring two shows for older audiences, I,
Lear and The Joy Of Wine. You can read about those here.
"The affable hilarity is intensified by the knowledge that they are only
holding it together by the skin of their teeth. They make a great job of it and
have a keen eye for material that can make young audiences roll about.” **** The
Scotsman
“Cuts straight to the heart of what gets the over sevens chuckling. The kids remain totally enchanted and fidget-free throughout.” The Stage
“This inspired comic duo rely on audience suggestions and their unusually quick thinking comedy talent to create absolute mayhem and anarchic fun for all ages.” **** The List
