An award winning shadow show filled with whimsical visual jokes. The surreal twists will leave you with a spring in your step!

In several short cycles, Richard Bradshaw will pedal you through worlds of captivating illusion. These simple shadow characters impress as they are skillfully transformed into peculiar creatures – a bush becomes an elephant, a tree turns into a giraffe and a fish glistens with kaleidoscopic scales.

Bradshaw, like Buster Keaton and Charlie Chaplin is one of the few great players in the world of kind-hearted humour. With evocative light, silhouettes and shadows, accompanied by live singing, he astonishes and enchants his audience.

Bradshaw’s Shadows is a theatrical rarity... and so is Super Kangaroo!

“Richard provides a flawless production that keeps the audience riveted to the screen. Here is the ultimate Shadow Puppetry… Richard always pleases the audience, and, as usual, he left us begging for more.”
