Trygve Wakenshaw – Silly Little Things

About Trygve Wakenshaw – Silly Little Things
Ranked in the top 5 of best-reviewed comedy shows at the Edinburgh Fringe, Silly Little Things is at once subversive and sublime – a masterclass of mime from the man who paved the way for so many contemporary clowns.
In this new show, Trygve builds an experimental playground and lets his imagination run riot. Spinning ridiculous scenes out of the smallest funny ideas, and conjuring up slapstick magic, Silly Little Things is a space of wonder and joy. It’s about friendship and magic and what more could we want really?
Trygve’s hilarious and fun hit physical comedies are consistently a sell-out at festivals around the world.
This incredibly hilarious, warm, physically extraordinary show is a treat for all. It’s fun, beautiful, ridiculous, clever, joyous and magical. Trygve (pronounced Trig-Vee) is an industry leader of clowning and mime, renowned at festivals around the world. His physicality and comedy stylings are truly second to none.
