Isle of Arts 2013: The Lostboys will bring Jules Verne and a homage to B-movies

Another great announcement in from Isle of Arts Festival HQ. The line-up just gets better and better. Ed


A shy bookworm persuades his uncle to accompany him on a dangerous quest, all to win the hand of the girl of his dreams. But dark forces stand in their way. The scene is set for a race where the finish line may prove deadly.

Paul Smith and Ben Adams are the Lostboys, a two-man roller-coaster of a show that recreates the novels of Jules Verne. In Voyage to the Centre of the Earth they fuse the adventure and scientific discovery contained within Verne’s four expedition novels with their own brand of performance.

Expect song, dance, wigs, lady-guys, guy-ladies and the occasional punch-up in this afternoon performance for all the family on Sunday 21 April.

The Lostboys return to the stage later on Sunday evening with their homage to B-Movies and Westerns, The Revenge of the Gargantuan Poo Monster.

Cowboy plumbers Dave and Barry of High Noon Plumbing are strangers in the eerie backwater of Quolon. These unlikely heroes are rapidly thrust into a world of blocked pipes, backed up loos, and mysterious, gruesome deaths that all leads to a frightening conclusion that could spell the end of the world as we know it. Parental guidance – this show is not suitable for children under 14 years old.
