"This is like champagne: heady, fizzy and cool”
DAILY TELEGRAPH

Two twins: Two women: One almighty confusion

A time of honour, where mend die to protect it and women fear to lose it, two men send a city spiralling into chaos. Surely the city can deal with these strangers? There’s just one problem: no one can tell them apart.

A riotous farce where nothing is what it seems, The Venetian Twins is performed at breakneck pace in Paul Hunter’s signature style of physical comedy that fuses The Marx Brothers with Fawlty Towers.

An associate artist of the Octagon, Paul Hunter’s wild and hilarious production of Accidental Death of an Anarchist wowed audiences, while his brilliant direction of The Beauty Queen of Leenane won the MEN award for Best Production.
