TOURING SHOWS

OUT OF THE BOX

A visual comedy spectacle featuring world class tricks, contagious laughter and a show-stopping, toothbrush-wielding, raucously silly finale.

Out of the Box is a family-friendly comedy show, which sees an unlikely character and his box bring audiences together through joyful awe, never knowing what to expect next.

With every opening of the box comes new trick shots, mini acts, and hilarious opportunities for participation – but don’t worry – Darryl only ever wants you to leave the stage feeling like the star of the show (there’s no ridicule here!).

Delivered through gentle, non-verbal clowning, ordinary objects become extraordinary in the hands of Darryl – and you won’t believe the reaction he gets from a toothbrush in the finale!

 The show is a joyous celebration of PLAY throughout your life, whatever your age, bringing generations together through seriously skilful silliness.

TESTIMONIALS

“His circus skills are flawless and as a clown he understands the beauty of imperfection as a tool to get the audience on side for a brilliant act climax.” India Star - House of India Star, Burlesque & Cabaret Events

 "It’s like Mr. Bean with tricks." Audience member, Edinburgh Fringe

 "I've never seen a show like it, amazing juggling and so funny!" Audience member, Bristol Weekend of Wonders

"I never thought I'd be able to juggle, he made me feel like the star of the show!" Reluctant dad, Bestival Festival

“One of our regular supporters said she had to drag her husband along, but he had a great time, and had laughed loads. I described it on advertising as family friendly, but it was more than that. Darryl has charisma he had the audience attention in 20 seconds and kept it. The children loved it.” -Audience member, Rural Touring Network
