Darwin Comedy Festival and alist.com.au presentsIt’s legendary. It’s live. And it’s back.
After conquering the globe and leaving audiences in stitches, The Umbilical Brothers return home with their most beloved creation, Speedmouse. Described by the Sydney Morning Herald as “Marcel Marceau on really good drugs”, this fast-paced, mind-bending comedy spectacular blends physical theatre, vocal wizardry, and pure genius.
Winners of BAFTAs, an Emmy, and the Helpmann Award for Best Comedy Performers, The Umbilicals have wowed audiences in over 40 countries. Now, they’re bringing the magic back where it all began. Expect live-action chaos, frame-by-frame hilarity, and the kind of comedic chemistry that’s made them legends of Australian comedy. Whether you’re a lifelong fan or discovering them for the first time, Speedmouse is a laugh-out-loud celebration of imagination, timing, and mischief.
