Spymonkey

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Spymonkey is a British physical theatre company. The cultural and linguistic diversity of the group and their blend of physical comedy and surrealism has won them an international reputation; they have performed in 17 countries from the U.S., Canada and Mexico to Syria and Taiwan. International promoters spotted early on the opportunity that Spymonkey’s work offers: original work that simultaneously represents the best in contemporary British theatre and rich comic entertainment. In the words of Patrick Brazier, then director of the British Council in Damascus, Spymonkey are a "superlative example to the world that there is more to British theatrical culture than just Shakespeare.

Spymonkey are; Aitor Basauri (performer & artistic director), Petra Massey (performer & artistic director), Toby Park (performer & artistic director), Stephan Kreiss (associate performer), Cal McCrystal (writer/director).
