10 Quick Qs – Plague of Idiots

1. What, where, when and how much?

Plague of Idiots are a bunch of Gaulier-trained performers described as “Simple, strange, and hilariously stupid” by The West Australian. The show is ridiculous physical comedy at its finest. Think The Umbilical Brothers meets Borat. Playing every night of the Fringe at The Garden of Unearthly Delights at 7.15pm. Tix are $28/$26.

2. Describe your show Twitter style, 140 characters or less:

This Fringe, international comedy collective collective Plague of Idiots bring their simple, beautiful idiocy to Australia for the first time.

3. A quote/moment that stands out from your show?

–

4. Is heckling allowed?

We love the audience to get involved but hecklers tend to destroy the show. Get involved but stay sensitive to when you’re going too far.

5. What is your role in the show?

I am the host of the show and the only one possessing even an ounce of acumen. I am also the producer.

6. What do you want to be when you grow up?

I’d like to be a bigger and bigger idiot.

7. If you could put on (or be in) any show/band in the world, which one would it be?

I’d like to see the Idiots play at the Sydney Opera House.

8. Why would someone not come see your show?

Our show is not suitable for pissheads with big egos. Unless they sit there and open their minds but not their mouths.

9. In your opinion, what is the worst show/movie you’ve ever seen and why?

Captain Corelli’s Mandolin. Nicholas Cage can be hit and miss but this was a mahoosive miss. Seriously, what accent was that!?

10. Besides your show, what’s your pick for the Fringe/Garden?
