Before he's allowed to kick the bucket, every living soul must hear Neil Frost's story. There's only one problem - he can't speak. Therefore, this comedy tale must be told by the audience, who watch a nervous man change the monotony of his life by taking a risk.
The Story of the Nervous Man (a silent comedy) is a riotous hour of clowning, character and living in the moment.
Neil Frost trained in clowning with Complicite Theatre's Mick Barnfather and Phil Burgers, aka Dr Brown (Fosters' Edinburgh Comedy Award winner '12).
The Story of the Nervous Man (a silent comedy) is his first solo show at the Ed Fringe, it was previously performed at the Camden Fringe '14 and Prague Fringe '15.
Neil is also appearing at the Ed Fringe '15, with his clown troupe Honky Bonk Comrades, in Honky Bonk History of The Beatles.
