From the award winning Wela Kapela team who brought you "Vincent", THE TRAMP is a one-man hybrid piece about the life of the greatest comic of the silent film era Charlie Chaplin.The life of Chaplin is closely woven through his beloved alter-ego, The Tramp where the line between comedy and tragedy is often blurred. The story begs the question: who came first? Charlie or The Tramp Accompanied by a timeless soundscape of honkey-tonk music and some musical numbers composed by Chaplin himself, coloured through reimagined pop, jazz, rock and musical theatre songs the show gives a fresh perspective on the man behind the bowler hat and toothbrush moustache.
