This is one birthday party you'd be cursed to miss.

 

Award-winning Canadian cult-hit returns 

So.Glad Arts presents

Creepy Boys

Newcastle Alphabetti Theatre

Friday 25 October 2024

Fresh from an award-winning season at the Edinburgh Fringe, queer Canadian duo, the Creepy Boys return to the UK with a month-long UK & Ireland tour, following sold-out shows across Canada and Australia.

Created and performed by real-life lovers turned identical twins,  S.E. Grummett (they/them) and Sam Kruger (he/him), Creepy Boys invites you, the audience, to attend the thirteenth birthday party of two very strange twin boys. The twins recruit the audience to help them set up their party, with all the deference and direct eye contact you’d expect from attending a twin-teen birthday blast, before driving the show off a horror comedy cliff - think the twins from The Shining meets My Super Sweet 16. This is one birthday party you’d be cursed to miss!  

The duo met while touring on the Canadian Fringe circuit and quickly fell in love. A digital version was first created while the pair were stuck in Australia for a year during the initial COVID wave in March 2020. Since then, the show has been redeveloped with the help of comedy director, Deanna Fleysher (of award-winning  show Butt Kapinski). Creepy Boys premiered at the FringeWorld Festival (in Perth) before touring across Australia, the UK and finally to the Edinburgh Fringe, where it took home the Unforgettable Show Award presented by Summerhall.
