RANNEL THEATRE COMPANY AND MAKIN PROJECTS
Rannel Theatre Company and makin projects present Flhip Flhop Take a whole bag full of classic comedy routines, shake them up and update them for the hip hop age and you have the exhilarating and hilarious Flhip Flhop. Two painter-decorators are doing a job in a friends flat, but in traditional slapstick manner things go wrong. In a dynamic display of one-upmanship, they compete to out-do each other with moves essentially unchanged from the time of Marx Brothers - hat swapping, leg lifting - and an utterly brilliant police chase acted out to increasingly ludicrous sound effects. Outrageously talented performers, Matt Bailey and Joey D combine witty dialogue, slapstick, laughter, breakdance, beatbox and Dj'ing to create an energising comedy for all. 'Wonderfully fresh and fine comic actors& superb funky moves and breaking. A comedic gem.' - 5 stars - The Scotsman 'Rannel Theatre Company throw down an hour of genuinely breathtaking physical comic theatre. This is a genuinely laugh-out-loud funny show, skilfully executed with razor sharp timing and intrinsic hip hop skills.' - 5 Stars - The List 'Anyone who comes out of Flhip Flhop not having enjoyed it should perhaps not be in Edinburgh. Dazzling Entertainment.' - 5 stars - Broadway Baby 'Their performance outstrips those generic hip-hop productions, colouring the genre with refreshing, down-to-earth comedy' edfestmag.co.uk 'They put a fresh lick of paint on Hip Hop_x0019_ s image' - The Metro 'Outstanding' - Scarborough Evening News 'Credible Hip Hop artistes but also true comedic performers making sure hip-hop really is accessible to the masses' South Wales Argus
