THE DAY I GOT THE HORN
John lived a quiet life, until everyone in his town transformed into a
terrifying, monstrous beast. With a horn. A big, scary horn.
Now, John is the last human left. He has, so far, resisted the horn. But
his vodka has run out, his willpower is waning… and the devils are at
the door.
The Day I Got The Horn is one clown’s absurd and hilarious story
of survival in a town on the skids.

LAST WEDNESDAY'S WORK SHIRT
This is the story of one man’s pointless job. His life seems to have no impact on the world, and, with a breakdown looming, he’s starting to lose the plot. (And his hairline). What begins as a series of subtle acts of rebellion soon turns into a hysterical disregard for the job at hand - not that his boss seems to have noticed.
​
The latest comedy from Dumb Found Theatre features big suits, loud ties and riotous dance routines.
Last Wednesday’s Work Shirt swings a wrecking ball into the crotch of capitalism and asks: ‘How d’ya like them apples?’

PAINTING BY NUMBERS
Painting By Numbers is a comedy theatre show about what it means to be an artist - and the struggle to be taken seriously.
Three incompetent painters - Isaac, Piotr and Damien - challenge each other to create a masterpiece, with the winner having their method of painting declared the best. But soon, cracks start to show, and paint begins to spill. In their efforts to win (through ANY means necessary), they will tear their work, the stage, and each other apart... with disastrous (and hilarious) consequences.
Prepare yourself for exhilarating paint fights, riotous dance routines and unforgettable high stakes LIVE painting!
