Twonkey's Basket Weaving in Peru

I am the spirit of the mountains, elf of the sea air, a basket maker. The Award winning fringe royalty returns with a mysterious melodic new adventure.

"clowning at its very best" ***** Scotsman.

Kate Copstick in her 5 star review in Scotsman wrote last year "If you have missed the many magical years of Twonkey at the Fringe then get yourself along and experience the most creative crazy in show business."

Twonkey is starting to think a simple life in Peru might be the way forward. Follow him with his donkey, puppets and songs to spiritual enlightenment or death.

Mr Twonkey (AKA Paul Vickers) is a surreal act of twisted songs, adult fairy tales and elaborate props. His goal is to mix funny anecdotes and heartfelt moments creating an enjoyable, uniquely Twonkey vision of a better world.

Twonkey is a musical comic with an operatic imagination.

**** Beyond the Joke

Being in his presence for an hour is delightful.
