Bob, Delivery of All Kinds is a mute show combining drama and magic, oscillating between clowning, poetry and humor – sometimes black humor.

It is a one man show created for the street: a man is delivering some packages, but no one is answering the door. Only the audience is here…

The idea behind this show is very simple: a delivery man ends up by mistake in front of an audience.

Each performance is a new encounter because Bob interacts with his audience, with the place and its atmosphere.

The story:

Who would order a withered plant in the last phase of dehydration, a pre-war alarm clock or an already bitten apple? And how would the delivery man react when he realized he had been stood up in front of everyone? What if he then decided to have fun with the audience with the help of his old tape recorder?

The scenery is minimalist: it all takes place in front of a door. A delivery man, BOB, is waiting in front of the door with two boxes. And this is the beginning of the end: engaging in methodical looting, BOB then becomes – with more or less success – a conjurer, a mime, an acrobat, a leek torturer and a blade swallower.
