Stonecrabs Theatre perform Utter Mess! at Ventnor Fringe Festival

From the company behind Ventnor Fringe Festival‘s 2019’s ★★★★★ The Trial (“captivating”, DIVA Magazine) and ★★★★★ Busu and The Damask Drum (“extravagant and visual”, The Wee Review), Utter Mess! features the critically acclaimed Ines Sampaio and Etsuko Shirasaka, in a show that mixes theatre, live music, clowning and magic.

In search for meaning and connection, a company of artists end up in Tokyo’s Museum of Lost Things, a curious place where nothing is remembered forever.

Their new reality is chaotic and they are now in a place of magic – where the magic always goes wrong. Frankly, it’s an utter mess. Exploring what we remember and what we forget – Utter Mess! is about how we connect with others and ourselves. Embrace the chaos with StoneCrabs’ new magical, thought-provoking, funny and blissful theatrical journey.
