Garry Starr: Classic Penguins
A comedy for adults in which the clown Garry Starr sets out to save books from extinction by performing every Penguin Classic, mostly naked apart from a pair of flippers. Garry Starr is the alter ego of Australian actor and clown Damien Warren-Smith.
The show comes to The Other Palace as part of a Francesca Moody Productions season, after sold-out runs at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe and in London. Running time is 1 hour 5 minutes with no interval, and it is recommended for ages 18+.
