Edinburgh Fringe
Pleading Stupidity
Aussies Chad and Brad are Pleading Stupidity. They robbed a bank... whilst still wearing their name tags from work. They took selfies with the stolen cash. And their crime was solved in just eight minutes. But who were the bank tellers behind the desk that day? What's their story? Will anyone listen to another? Pleading Stupidity tells this true story with high-energy, physical comedy, frenetic action, and verbatim speech. Featuring a multi-rolling cast playing a whole host of wacky characters, this is 'a fast-paced blast of comic theatre' (Chortle.co.uk).
