Trash Test Dummies

"Laugh-out-loud slapstick."


Watching the superbly talented Trash Test Dummies, we weren’t sure who was having more fun, the kids or their parents. 

The kids spent the entire show either in open-mouthed awe or fits of laughter, and quite frankly, so did the adults. These guys are incredible performers: showing off amazing balancing acts, brilliant juggling, and laugh-out-loud slapstick. It’s entertaining, interactive (be prepared for the ball fight) and whole lot of fun. But don’t take my word for it: Ollie (aged six) thinks they’re “really funny and cool”. Grab your kids, or babysit someone else’s, and catch some of the best family fun in the festival.
