Honky Bonk present<br />

THE HONKY BONK HISTORY OF THE BEATLES<br />

A comically surreal show inspired by the story and songs of the Beatles. John Lennon famously said: ‘You can only find truth through<br />

absurdity’. But could he handle the nonsense required to tell the real Beatles story? The Honky Bonks are up for the challenge. “The Honky<br />

Bonk Comrades are harnessing a fine history of absurdity... irresistibly funny” Chortle “Brilliant, inventive... far beyond silly” Londonist<br />
