The2Men


“Walkabout theatre is not just putting on a costume and wandering around. It is about the way that the actors take on the role and how real or surreal they can make it! It is about playing with the people and the surroundings and creating as bizarre, funny, and engaging a performance as you can by drawing people into your ridiculous farce!” Dave & Anton.

The2Men are Anton Mackman and Dave Solo. Both have been involved in street theatre and other outdoor and indoor performance for over 15 years each.

The2Men is a collaboration of the minds of 2 very silly men who ought to know better! Putting on any of their costumes transforms them into the characters with hilarious results. They like to be as loud and ridiculous as possible so that they attract the attention of large areas for their impromptu walkabout performances.

They will seize any opportunity to interact with people and draw them into their playful parodies! All themed characters combine carefully choreographed and rehearsed pieces and the always unexpected delights of improvising with whatever situations they may encounter.

Special Themes

The2Men can come up with any themed characters to suit your events. In the past these have included KGB agents, Ticket Inspectors, Victorian swim suited bathers, Army officers, Andy Warhols, Hippies and Superheroes.
Suggest a theme and we will endeavour to come up with, and costume the perfect accompaniment to your event. We challenge you!!

It is also possible for The2men to employ the services of other fellow actors with relevant experience to create larger groups of walkabout characters.
