Broom!! tells a story of the mystery of friendship and the befriending of mystery, and how together two clown cleaners sweep away life’s cobwebs with some high-powered high-jinks. Broom! Broom!! takes the timeless art of clowning, adds a contemporary twist and fuses it with puppetry and music to create this dynamic and delightful show, a must see for the whole family. This hilarious new production is suitable for family audience and particularly for children 5 - 12 years.
