From internationally acclaimed Dummies Corp, comes The Dumtectives in Cirque Noir. 

Set in a bygone era of cheap dames and dirty dicks this noir mystery promises to be filled with awe-inspiring acrobatics, slapstick, plus a dash of burlesque, and some high-flying aerial showmanship.

The show comes to Fringe World in 2022 after acclaimed runs at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, the Canberra Circus Festival, and the National Circus Festival that was held in Mullumbimby in 2021.

Dummies Corp are the Australian circus-comedy specialists, recognised for creations of quality that are intelligent, theatrical, inventive and resonate across generations.
