THE BOY With TAPE ON HIS FACE
Combine the sheer, childlike absurdism of Vic Reeves with the deft, physical intonation of Hugh Laurie and the genius of Buster Keaton and you have SAM WILLS: The Boy with Tape on His Face
Winner of the prestigious Billy T James Award for Comedy (2005), three times winner of the NZ Comedy Guild award for Best Show and nominee for Best Newcomer at the 2008 Melbourne International Comedy Festival, Sam Wills makes his UK debut with his newest and most intriguing comic creation…
Wills’ piercing blue eyes stare out over a rectangle of gaffer tape as he takes us on a romp through his swag of entertaining visual gags, approaching his craft with a wonderful, childlike inventiveness. He holds his audience spell bound as he deftly unfolds tangents of his wonderful and delightful brain process, deliberately preparing each scene and finally breaking the suspense with each hilarious and unpredictable maneuver.
