Inspired by the timeless genius of Mr Bean, Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton, A Brief Case of Crazy is a heart-warming and hilarious physical comedy told through slick choreography, mime, clowning and puppetry.

Meet Thomas, an awkward, introverted office worker with a quiet crush on his equally shy colleague, Daisy. His quest for love must contend with a boisterous boss named Simon and a rather bothersome briefcase that drags an awkward introvert into extraordinary events.

Will his quest for love fail? Or will he discover, it’s what’s on the inside that counts?

A Brief Case of Crazy is a silent love story with a very loud heart.

Fringe Review

Definitely a company to watch… This is pure theatre

Broadway World

Completely electric… like witnessing an evolution of silent film humour into the 21st century, full of sharp -ming, goofy charm and unexpected depth.

The Young(ish) Perspective

Incredible skill in physical theatre and storytelling… an expertly performed piece of theatre.
