the Bonkers
Meet the cast of the hilarious new comedy Bonk!
Isobonk (Isobel Marmion)
Isobonk - the boobs of the operation.
It was on a cold, sunny day in the British Isles that Isobel inspired a group of young and out of work actors to venture into the strange and wonderful world of Bonk!
Under her leadership the play has grown from concept to fruition.
And whenever cleavage is required Isobel is always on hand with hers.
Chubonka (Anh Chu)
Chubonka is a fiery creative type hailing from Canada. A former food critic turned actress and playwright, she will not only be appearing in the flesh in Bonk! every night at the Edinburgh festival, but has also written and produced her first full-length play Something There That's Missing
premiering at the Edinburgh festival.
Keep Anh's mouth open long enough and there's no telling what might come out! ....or what might go in....!
;-)
McBonk (Jessica McKerlie)
Said to be boob buddies with our very own Isobel, Jess comes to us all the way from Australia (a very international show we have here). And brings wit, humour and the confidence to perform a fake orgasm in the middle of the Royal Festival Hall in London, in front of all the unsuspecting passers by!
Bonkham (Adam Courting)
Adam brings beautiful poetic writing....and a dirty mind! The Bonk! round table would not be complete without his witty interjections or his cheeky, knowing looks!
Adam we suspect will be the only person in the world to be performing a full run at the Edinburgh Fringe this year with Bonk! and also appearing on stage every week of the Camden Fringe, which runs simultaneously in London!
Bonksworth (James Wordsworth)
Whenever we need a story or to check something out, we can always rely on Jamie to have "seen a video" somewhere. Jamie has so many stories that start with "I saw this video" that we are beginning to suspect that perhaps he is making some of these videos himself...Perhaps you can ask him if you ever meet him.
Bonk! is inspired by the book
BONK: THE CURIOUS COUPLING OF SEX AND SCIENCE
by
Mary Roach
Mary Roach
Mary Roach - the original Bonker.
Mary inspired us all with her fantastic book exploring the science and history of man's exploration into the world of sex. She holds a light up to humanity's secrecy and almost embarrassment at what couldn't be more natural an act.
We hope to carry the lantern that Mary Roach has lit, pass on her ethos and spread the good word, and bring sex to the masses :-)
