Bane triology

The multi award winning BANE trilogy arrives at the Ventnor Exchange straight from an international tour of the US and Australia.

A unique one-man, one-musician trilogy of comedy monologues that follows hardboiled antihero Bruce Bane as he goes about his shadowy business in the city.

Created by Joe Bone, these comedies are brought to life through physical performance; shape-shifting from one character to the next character, jumping into runaway cars, sprinting down back alleys and leaping off buildings without a prop or lighting change in sight.

BANE brings the Sin City-esque world to life on stage, accompanied by the stunning live guitar soundtrack from Ben Roe. With a whopping 136 characters over the trilogy (a Guinness World Record) Bane has been a wisecracking comedy hit across the world.

“Joe Bone’s performance is phenomenal... The real joy comes from the craftsmanship Bone has put in there are some dizzyingly elaborate set pieces here… extremely funny” Time Out

“It's a brilliant hour of comedy theatre which has fun with all the genre's hallmarks and manages to conjure a sense of widescreen thrill with zero props. It struck me as a sort of 60 minute pitch for what could just be the best crime movie never made” The Guardian

This Performance is suggested for those aged 13+
