Only Bones – Daniel Nodder
Presented by Thom Monckton and Daniel Nodder
“An amazing physical performance filled with moments of great humour and simple beauty.”
Explore the universe in this intimate and mesmerising physical comedy voyage. Join a jelly-like performer as they pluck creatures from evolutionary history and push the boundaries of physics all within 1 metre squared. Only Bones – Daniel Nodder spans the universe from the Big Bang to the invention of fire to a primordial hand ballet with upbeat jazz. You’ll witness the ordinary become extraordinary and the strange become familiar. You’ll see limbs bend in ways you never thought possible, and you’ll never be able to look at your knees the same way again.
Only Bones – Daniel Nodder contains silly physical theatre met with captivating design and soundscapes. Daniel Nodder utilises every part of their elastic body from teeth to toes, accompanied by a playful lightbulb that seems to have a mind of its own. This performance is a visually stunning and joyous experience.
“This is the type of show that you go to a fringe festival for.” ★★★★½”
“Some of the funniest physical gags I’ve seen in a long time [...] I left this performance with a big goofy smile on my face.”
“The on-stage chemistry between Daniel and that light bulb is off the charts.”
“It's adept and intensely funny, bold, clever and original.””
