TONGUE TIED

Where true stories meet a jazz band who have absolutely no idea of what’s coming. 5 storytellers will take to the stage exploring this month’s theme: ‘Failure and Me.’ This month is dedicated to the clowns. A homage to Phillippe Gaulier who has brought so many of us together, while not all of us had the privilege to learn directly from him. His impact has been so profound throughout the clown community. Let’s celebrate his teachings and clowning this Melbourne fringe. The stories can be funny, sad, absurd but must absolutely be true. We want real experiences from real lives. For our musicians, this is a high-stakes masterclass in listening and reacting. For our storytellers, it’s a chance to embrace the chaos when a lively tune plays over the description of a grisly high school breakup - oops. Maybe you are interested in staying in sync with someone who doesn’t know where you’re going. Open to exploring the fun in getting things wrong and think you’ll love that electric feeling when - against all odds - the story and the music land on the same note. Maybe you should tell a story? We’d love to hear from you! get in contact at [email protected]. Places are limited. Pay What You Can Option: Alright? Comedy believes access to the arts is fundamental to a creative, joyful and empathetic community. We don't think money should ever be the reason someone misses out, purchase a ticket priced by you. TONGUE TIED is produced by Naarm-based production company Alright? Comedy, obsessed with this thing called community.
