COMPANY GAVIN ROBERTSON presents –

IS THAT A WHIP IN YOUR HAND?

Written and Performed by Gavin Robertson
Directed by Nicholas Collett.

Following performances in USA, UK and Australia, Gavin Robertson focuses his attention on the fortune-hunter movie phenomenon encompassing everything from ‘Indiana Jones’ to ‘National Treasure’ via ‘Romancing The Stone’ – in his latest physical cartoon style adventure – spoofing the characters adored by millions, and exploding every cliché… solo!

Featuring the usual mix of maps, clues, travel and tricky situations, it’s minimum props, maximum effect as our hero searches for treasure via Columbia and Greece, evading trouble at every turn!
From the team that brought you BOND! and DONE TO DEATH BY JOVE!
