Show:
Title: Kafka Nuts
Category: Comedy
By: Comedy Suitcase
Created by: Scrimshaw and Weinhagen
Location: Illusion Theater
Summary: A screwball comedy in the vein of the Marx brothers, incorporating the philosophy of Kafka.
Highlights: This show is a rapid-fire succession of puns and physical comedy. Joshua English Scrimshaw and Levi Weinhagen are a couple of attorneys attempting to help poor pantsless Zeppo (Joe Bozic) when he's arrested for some nameless crime. There's a chase scene, a trial, a metamorphosis (into a mime), musical interludes (by the fabulous Rachel Austin), and lots and lots of puns followed by pointed looks at the audience. What else is there to say? It's great fun, good old-fashioned comedy, well performed by the cast (which also includes Kelvin Hatle as judge, priest, cop, etc.).
