Canapes & Cocktails is a brand new show developed and will be performed by Sydney comedian Jeromaia Detto shortly at the Factory Theatre

The show is a wonderful mix of clowning, sketch and improv that explores a host of unique, slightly unhinged, characters, encouraging the audience to be lost in  world of play for 50 minutes.

Jeromaia has always been fascinated by the notion of playfulness and exploring the idea of “what if?”. He believes that everyone can be funny and playful, despite the way modern society limits this
exploration. This, coupled with his working in museums and hospitals, as an educator/entertainer, has led him to develop his debut solo show that flips this social construct around.

This show is not about him, it’s about the audience rediscovering their playfulness and recapturing the freedom they once had.

Jeromaia Detto is a regular in the Sydney improv scene having performed in over 300 comedy shows since 2013. He is a Maestro National champion (2019), two time Cranston Cup Grand Finalist and in 2018 performed as an ‘All-star’ in Impro Australia’s Celebrity Theatresports.

He is widely known for his clowning and physical comedy, being described as “eternally funny” by Honi Soit for his roles in USyd’s
2017 Jew Revue.

Jeromaia has trained internationally in improv with the iO Theatre in Chicago and in clown at both Ecole Philippe Gaulier in France and at the Norway Clown Camp. He also teaches improv and clown across Sydney both privately and at schools.

This will be Jeromaia’s first SCF as a solo artist after successful runs at both Perth and Adelaide Fringes earlier this year.

The show will play the Factory Theatre on May 18 at 5.45pm and May 19 at 4.45pm,.
