“Mr. Fumblebody” is a performance and a character created and performed by Lars Vik, an experienced Norwegian actor, director and playwright. Fumblebody is inspired by and is a hommage to the great silent movie masters Buster Keaton and Charlie Chaplin – and to the French comedian Jaques Tati.

The performance is the story of an ordinary day with Fumblebody at his “Help Agency”. People can call him up to get help in solving all kind of problems. No problem is too little, no problem is too big. The audience will pretty soon understand that Fumblebody himself is the one in need of help.

In this hilarious show Vik combines physical slapstick with vivid audience participation and on the spot improvisations.

“Mr Fumblebody” aims at people from five years and up - with a sense of humour. It will be performed in english.

Tickets are now on sale! Very limited seating so get them soon.
