Synopsis
It's a busy day in the Number One Lost Present Department. It's Christmas-time and lots of presents have gone astray. Vic and Ed need to do some detective work... and FAST... to find a home for all the lost presents before it's too late. And that's not easy to fit in when there are so many other things to do, like playing games, making up songs, and inventing fun new toys. Can they do it or will there be children without presents? The Lost Present is a fun packed 50 minutes of physical comedy, musical mayhem and silly songs, with lots to make the little ones in your life laugh out loud.
Our Review:
Petra Schofield - 20 December 2012
Set in the Lost Present Department Ed Ed Patrick and Vic Vic Llewellyn have a machine that receives lost presents and reunites them with their rightful owners. This is no ordinary department and whilst dressed as workmen they tell the story as to why Vic does not like Christmas; he lost a present down a gorge during one snowy winter when the bridge linking them to their Grandfathers house collapsed.
This is a hugely entertaining tale, told through story, song and some of the most inventive and simplistic props around. The opening rhythmic section utilising scissors, stapler, ruler, clothes peg, cardboard tube, mugs and spoons is mesmerising for the young audience and no doubt many households will see this repeated across the festive season.
There is great energy from Ed and Vic, this is a simple idea which masks the skill and evident talent behind the concept. Directed by Emma Williams with music and lyrics from Kid Carpet this crazy vision will not fail to pleas...
