Twunk: head of a twink, body of a hunk. Step right this way and see him.

The award-winning ventriloquist presents a new show so strong, it’s dangerous.

In Marytown, USA Jack Hammer lifts 1000kg six times daily for adoring crowds in his dad’s circus. Jack was born the strongest boy in the world. And he’s gay.

But is his superhuman strength everything he believes? Is it true that all other humans can only look, not touch?

‘Hilarious, extraordinary… A healthy dose of the unhinged.’
★★★★ Guardian

Following his award-winning debut, Voices Of Evil (Total sellout 2023/24) the ‘funniest new ventriloquist on the block’ (Telegraph) returns with a genre-defying, multi-5 star reviewed cult hit. Combining ventriloquism, clown, physical theatre and vocal acrobatics, Lachlan weaves a neo-vaudevillian horror fairytale packed with sea-lions, stunts and sinister secrets.
