Mr Lucky's Party .

The show is developed from Avanti's popular character, Mr Lucky. In this static show Mr. Lucky begins, as usual, alone under a perpetual downpour, but he is soon joined by a guest.

During the tea party that follows our couple begin a celebration and party hats, even a cake, appear, however with each course the weather worsens, the downpour increases and their mood blackens.

Performed to an evocative soundtrack with no text, the show is meticulous to character and detail. In typical Avanti style it concludes with a bizarre, spectacular and unexpected twist.
