About the show
Klein and Calvin are two anthropomorphic butt cheeks with big dreams. In this wildly original absurdist comedy from Sayit Once (China/UK), they navigate culture shock, friendship and the perils of studying abroad. Packed with sharp humour, unexpected depth and — yes — plenty of fart jokes, the play is a fresh take on identity, belonging and the universal struggle of finding your place in the world. The show runs for 50 minutes at the studio venue and is suitable for audiences aged 14 and over.
Why see this show?
An absurd premise that turns out to be a genuinely warm-hearted story about belonging and identity. Come for the fart jokes, stay for the surprisingly moving story about what it means to find your place.
