Can't face art? Can't face life?
What is it
you can't face?
CAN’T FACE goes there!
Dressed up in sequins and smut CAN’T FACE erupts with epic stunts, humor, circus & song. Boldly peeling back the curtain on the unspoken, CAN’T FACE risks every embarrassment to take a run at the taboo and politically incorrect.
Strap in for 60 minutes of awe, wonder and guilty laughter as CAN’T FACE wrap stunning skills around a sucker punch at life and dip it all in clever cheekiness. Four hot performers at the peak of their powers ask…
Can't face life? Can't face art? Can’t face rules? What is it you Can't Face?
Featuring:
Malia Walsh: Comedic circus artist & provocateur. Producer/performer of award winning Children are Stinky & Circus Trick Tease.
Carol Cates: Songstress with a dark side. Darling of UK cabaret, her sly wit and haunting voice have earned her 5 star reviews from the Scotsman and BBC.
Vincent Van Berkel: Strongman with a soft side. A skilled and experimental circus artist (Casus, Perhaps Hope).
Jamie Bretman: Clown with a twist. Funny as hell and multi-skilled (Trash Test Dummies).
What do you get when four performers, all with hit shows under their belts, set out to do everything they shouldn’t do? You get the stealth hit of the 2017 Melbourne Fringe, that’s what!
