65 million years ago, dinosaurs ruled the Earth…
30 years ago, a movie about dinosaurs ruled the box office…
This year, you are advised to HOLD ON TO YOUR BUTTS!
Hold On To Your Butts is a must see “shot-for-shot” parody of the greatest dinosaur film of all time. After selling out in New York and at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, this wildly inventive tour-de-force of comedy, Foley sound and physical theatre is now touring the country and transferring to the West End following a hugely successful London run.
The five-star (WhatsOnStage) show ran at the Arcola Theatre in London over Christmas and is now on tour with sold out performances!
A wildly inventive tour-de-force of comedy, physical theatre and live Foley, Hold On To Your Butts was created by Recent Cutbacks, directed by Kristin McCarthy Parker (Puffs, Or: Seven Increasingly Eventful Years at a Certain School of Magic and Magic, Off-Broadway), developed with Nick Abeel, Kyle Schaefer & Blair Busbee, and stars Jack Baldwin (The Play That Goes Wrong and The Comedy About A Bank Robbery, West End) and Charlie Richards (The Play That Goes Wrong West End, The Unfriend West End) who also serves as associate director, with live sound and foley by Charlie Ives (A Christmas Carol – A Ghost Story, Nottingham Playhouse and Alexandra Palace; Private Lives, West End). The company is completed by James Physick (The Unseen, Riverside Studios). A Cappella arrangements are by Kelsey Didion, and Lighting Design is by Christopher Nairne.
