The films of Wes Anderson occupy a unique and vivid universe unto themselves: love and yearning; complicated family dynamics; existential angst. Binoculars. Maps. Suitcases.
This year, to celebrate their fifth Brighton Fringe, Tiny Dynamite are bringing you Wes Anderson’s art deco aesthetic, with an iconic hotel setting and concierge experience not to be forgotten.
Enter the whimsical, colourful, idiosyncratic, world of Wes. Based on audience suggestions, the performers will conjure a fully improvised, never to be seen again, medley of rooted characters and story fragments. Our show will also include a live improvised soundtrack.
So pack your leather valise, leave a laconic note, and join us in the ballroom for The Budapest Grand Piano, a show that will make you laugh, make you contemplate missed opportunities, and provide a bar so you can actually have a cognac this time.
Ticket holders are eligible for discount codes at the Mercure Brighton Seafront, including 15% off your room.
