Bruce
The Last Great Hunt. Directed by Wyatt Nixon Lloyd and Tim Watts. Fringe World. Perth Town Hall, Cathedral Square, Perth WA. Feb 9-15, 2017

This ‘back by popular demand’ show has had a previous sell-out season in Perth and enjoyed success at the Adelaide and the Edinburgh Fringe Festivals. Presented by The Last Great Hunt, this epic story tells the saga of Bruce, a floating block of yellow foam with a wonderful heart.

A story of space travel, romance, police drama, dozens of characters and the space-time continuum all performed with two performers, a pair of gloves and a block of foam. A major action adventure, beautifully imagined on the smallest scale.

Performers Wyatt Nixon Lloyd and Tim Watts create diverse characters and situations with outstanding vocal performances. They also designed the technical aspects of the show - lighting and music beautifully synchronised and carefully crafted.

Bruce is clever, sophisticated puppetry performance that needs to be seen to be appreciated. It is easy to see why this is achieving 5 star reviews around the world. Move quickly to catch this little, local gem.
