Some
would argue that betting is in the Australian blood. An hour with wide-eyed Tim
Fitzhigham makes it quite clear that our obsession with betting has ancient
roots in the mother country. Tim has
done some very strange things in his time, all in the name of a good bet.
Pushing wheelbarrows across London, challenging the world's best in chess, rowing
a bathtub across the English channel, long distance Morris dancing - and he re-enacts
these crazy adventures with the skills of an engaging storyteller. And if his
stories seem a bit far-fetched he has photographs to back them up. The appeal
of this show is the weirdness of the tales and the humour and infectious energy
of the storyteller as we relive his oddball adventures and take our own bets on
their outcome. Like a bet? Take a chance and go and see this funny, enjoyable,
and instructive show.
