It’s alive!

Join us in this one-off fundraising event to help TO BE FRANK get to Melbourne Fringe 2023!

A horrifying comedy about a monster thrust into creation and trying its best to discover why.

TO BE FRANK follows the journey of a curious creature ‘Frank’ who discovers and reacts to the audience in a new and organic way each night. A modern reimagining; blending clown, physical comedy and horror with live music and sound effects.

This is a raucously fun, delightfully thrilling and incredibly human solo show. Bringing into question loneliness & love, creation & destruction and ultimately how to cope with the emotional intensity of being alive. TO BE FRANK is a journey of epic proportions – but here, the ‘monstrosity' finally gets to tell its own story. 

Indulge the horror, indulge your inner clown, indulge the naive monster inside us all.

Let Frank be frank.
