GAMARJOBAT


gah-mar-joh-baht = HELLO in Georgian

“**** (4 stars) This is a show to fall in love with. GAMARJOBAT is irresistibly, endearingly funny and, undoubtedly the most skilled and clever comedy in Edinburgh. It is unique, in that it will appeal to everyone who goes to see it. That aside, it has no boundaries – and it has no words ... let them take your inner child out to play”
– The Scotsman, 2004


GAMARJOBAT
are Hiropon and Ketch, two unlikely-looking Japanese mime artists who, with shaven heads, red and gold Mohawks, Doc Martens and stove-pipe suits, have taken their artform to the streets across Europe and Asia.

Not only are they world-renowned street performers, they are equally at home in the theatre and it is their latest awarding-winning show – “The Boxer” – that Malaysian audiences will get to see from March 3rd – 19th.

GAMARJOBAT are frequent performers at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, where they won Best Comedy Duo in 2004 and the Tap Water Award in 2005 – an honour they share with PLUCK who won in 2004.

Hiropon and Ketch are stamped from the same mould as PLUCK. Like PLUCK, they are classically trained and honed their craft on the streets in some of the major capitals of the world. No wonder they win awards, audiences and glowing reviews everywhere they go!


This event is organised by Gardner & Wife Theatre and supported by The Japan Foundation.
