The British puppet makers Dik Downey and Adam Blake got the brilliant idea of making a show about themselves, about being men. After gleefully digging beneath the surface, they soon realised that things can get very messy.
Big Boys Don’t Cry is part of the Pop up Puppets festival at Kulturhuset, Stockholm August 18-21 2022.
In a riot of colour, dance, clowns and puppets, Dik and Adam take you on a hysterical journey that is full of heart, but close to the bone. Big Boys Don’t Cry, the latest production from the makers of praised Coulrophobia, is an emotionally ridiculous story about manhood. A play by Opposable Thumb Theatre, Nordland Visual Theatre and the London International Mime Festival, UK.
Adults, from 15 years.
