New York City
Thwak
$30.00-$40.00; $25.00 opening weekend
Inspired by cartoons and the movies, Thwak combines physical feats of agility, remarkably accurate aural imitations, and a healthy dose of humor to create a series of set-ups, each more surreal than the last. Using mime, precision lip-synching, uncanny sound effects, pratfalls, high-speed chases, and hand puppets, The Umbilical Brothers soar through a raucous hour and a half of comic mayhem.
