Bespoke
is a brand new small-scale walkabout act that amusingly reveals the hidden world of the bespoke tailor.
Weaving in and out of the audience, the company of tailors has the audience in stitches as they comically share the various tricks of their trade.
Watch out – the tailors are about!
Having broken free from the confines of Saville Row, the suited and booted tailors will invite you to engage in their services.
Mixing the slapstick and parody of 'Are You Being Served' with the distinctive friendliness and skill of the classic Indian tailor, the mischievous tailors will undoubtedly cause trouble wherever they go.
Bespoke is based on original material written by Ajay Chhabra and Eric MacLennan and co-created by the Bespoke Company.
