Dynamic duo ready to make Werribee laugh

The Umbilical Brothers are back down under and they have locked in a laugh out loud show in Werribee.

On Sunday 8 February the globally successful comedy duo will perform Speedmouse– their new act– at the Wyndham Cultural Centre.

Winners of BAFTAs, an Emmy, and the Helpmann Award for Best Comedy Performers, The Umbilicals have wowed audiences in more than 40 countries.

Throughout their careers they have played packed stadiums and even supported comedy titans like Robin Williams.

Expect live-action chaos, frame-by-frame hilarity, and the kind of comedic chemistry that’s made them legends of Australian comedy.

Whether you’re a lifelong fan or discovering them for the first time, Speedmouse is a laugh-out-loud celebration of imagination, timing, and mischief.

The duo’s trademark interplay to cleverly twist theatrical rules and everyday situations is the reason they amass more than 200,000 online video views a month.

The act will live, unfettered and unfiltered, so you won’t know what’s coming until it hits you.

A high-octane affair, this fast-paced gig is a blend of physical theatre, vocal wizardry and comedic genius.

Be seated for 5pm and start, sit back, relax and get ready for 75 minutes of uninterrupted, unhinged action.

Speedmouse contains adult themes and course language, so the show is recommended for those older than 15 and with parental guidance— or whichever word doesn’t sound lame.

They are currently performing six different theatre shows across the planet, so make sure to follow more of their work.

Tickets are $69 full price and $64 for concession holders.
