Fools of the Apocalypse
15th June 2019
The world has ended, now let the fun begin! After the world has been decimated by a catastrophic event, two clowns rise from the ashes and find that they are the last people on the planet. Between them, they must ensure their own survival and rebuild civilisation as they knew it. Only one problem stands in their way: They're both idiots.
Scram Collective presents a heartfelt romp through the end of times. Fools of the Apocalypse is a clown show that offers a playful take on a doomsday scenario whilst highlighting the resilience of the human spirit at times of crisis.

"Sick of your life? I'll give you a life!"
Aoife can do anything she wants. No need to go to work, or pay for her meals, the world simply bends to her will. However, with infinite power and infinite potential, Aoife struggles to balance her abilities with normal human interaction. As the lines between whimsy and abuse are blurred, an innocent person in Aoife's way doesn't stand a chance.
"Brilliantly executed"
- View From The Gods ****
"Balletic and athletic in sudden, willing and inventive bursts"
"An enjoyable and testing piece of physical theatre"
- The Swindonian
"An exciting ensemble and some very important social questions"
"Devastatingly ripping up the common perception is what makes Whimsy a really interesting piece"
- London Pub Theatres
Scram Collective presents a surreal dark comedy which asks what an ordinary person would do if given the power to do anything - Could they lead a normal life or would they simply be overwhelmed by their abilities? 'Whimsy' combines quick dialogue with intense physicality to explore themes of corruption and consent.

"Sick of your life? I'll give you a life!"
Day after day, Aoife lives out her boring old regular life, accompanied by four bodies who wish they could do something about that. After a bizarre experience with a hideous masked creature, Aoife finds that she has the strange power to do anything she wants. She no longer has to work, pay bills, or do as she’s told, instead the world simply bends to her wishes.
However, with infinite power and infinite potential, Aoife struggles to balance her abilities with normal human interaction. As the lines between whimsy and abuse become blurred, an innocent person caught in Aoife’s web doesn’t stand a chance.
