One of The Scotsman’s Picks for Top Comedy Show

Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2012

A hilarious one-man silent slapstick that charms without a word

A temperamental projector and a movie screen with a big, big hole At Cinema Kaput, it’s a mad, mad, mad, mad world! Disasters follow one after the other as bumbling projectionist Mr. Fixit tries to distribute popcorn and start the film, resorting to ladders, planks, and even a vacuum cleaner to sort out the growing mess. As the audience is roped into the wonderfully funny action, will the hapless hero be able to save the day

Talented young Australian comedian Tom Flanagan has risen to stardom through a series of standout performances at top venues and festivals from 2005 onwards, with solo show Kaput debuting at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2012 to great critical acclaim. Accompanied by a silent movie-esque score, brilliant acrobatics and cleverly executed clowning, this is a captivating “screening” to delight both adults and children!
