After an eight-year hiatus, the famed Canadian clown duo return to The Cultch with a new work that promises to liberate Vancouver audiences yet again into the giddy, scary world of pure imagination.
Mump and Smoot inhabit a parallel Universe on planet Ummo, worship a god named Ummo and converse in their own gibberish language - Ummonian - all the while delighting in the chaos of a nightmarish world. In CRACKED we find the intrepid duo challenging their god Ummo, who seemingly is bent on the annihilation of their friendship and ultimately their very existence.
The duo will once again turn conventional clowning on its head in this darkly humourous new work that ranges from zany to macabre. Not for Children!
“Mump & Smoot are a national treasure” – Edmonton Sun
“Mump and Smoot are the latest wrinkle on the existential fall-guy, the Everymen buddy-buddies alone at the edge of the world. With their horned caps, bulbous noses and pancake eye masks, however, they are closer to big-tent Laurel and Hardy than new-age Vladimir and Estragons...” - New York Newsday
