In the spirit of the Muppets, two entertainers attempt to perform a variety show, but the props seem to take on a life of their own. What ensues is cartoon-like slapstick with accidental loss of arms and legs... and sometimes the addition of more arms and legs than can be managed.

The show is 60 minutes of non-stop unique surprises ending in a heroic teetering balancing barnstormer finale and has been hailed as funny and brilliant by all ages and all cultures.

The Strange Comedy Show can be adapted for an outdoor stage at 45-50 minutes.

"Das Duo Strange Comedy unterhielt mit einer Nummer aus Clownerie, Illusionskunst und Puppenspiel. Mit ganz viel Charme, lustigen Ideen und noch lustigeren Ueberraschungseffekten hatten sie das Publikum schnell auf ihrer Seite. Wir haben herzlich gelacht!"

— Magazine 4 Muenchen

"Strange Comedy combines unbelievable illusions and modern clown theater... Unforgettable!"

"Comical and roaring with laughter is the way Strange Comedy introduces itself. The mix of breathtaking artistry, antics, and crazy ideas contribute to a magical cocktail, intertwined with humour."
