CARPE IDIOTUS
Australia’s most unique blend of physical and stand up comedy, music, and mime!
The duo became a household name when their performance of The Slinky’s rocketed them into the finals of Australia’s Got Talent. Subsequent views of the performance sent it viral, with more than 100,000 hits on You Tube in a two week period!
Tony Williams and Dennis Clare have been comedy partners for more than 20 years. In his own right, Tony is an outstanding vocalist/keyboardist/guitarist and songwriter who has received both an APRA song writing award and an ARIA nomination for Best Comedy Album.
Dennis Clare has created physical theatre for clients as diverse as the NSW Art Gallery and a plethora of advertising and marketing companies. Dennis is widely regarded as Australia’s most outstanding mime artist. Together, Tony and Dennis fuse their individual talents to create a comedy performance that is at once visually awe inspiring, hysterically funny, and full to the brim with audience participation.
Tony and Dennis’ inherent understanding of their audience – and ability to adapt accordingly - has seen them become one of Australia’s most in demand acts. They have entertained extremely diverse audiences such as: children on a school holiday cruise ship; a room full of plumbers during their Awards night; doctors at a 5 star dinner function; international television audiences who cannot speak English (but who understand the visual comedy); and retirees at their Probus celebrations.
Give them an audience and Tony and Dennis are guaranteed to entertain them, have them laughing and singing along! And if your company has a special message to impart to your guests, or you wish Tony and Dennis to pay homage to the nature of your corporate industry...just say the word, and the boys will be delighted to incorporate this as a fun feature of their performance!
