The Umbilical Brothers: The Distraction

Details

The Umbilical Brothers are an international comedy phenomenon.

Their Nickelodeon series “The Upside Down Show”, as well as Disney’s “The Book of Once Upon A Time”, “The Sideshow” and “Maisy” delivered them a fanbase of both fanatical toddlers and late-night, Taki-eating couch potatoes.

Named as two of Entertainment Weekly’s “100 Most Creative People In Entertainment”, they have appeared on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, after James Brown at Woodstock ’99, and before the Queen. They’ve performed in 40 countries. From Hawaii to Tokyo, New York to Moscow, audiences have laughed like idiots at their acclaimed performances that use a fast-paced mix of movement, vocal sound effects and verbal interplay to cleverly twist theatrical rules and everyday situations into comedy triumph.

Their online videos are viewed by over 200,000 people a month. Their appeal crosses generations, as children in the audience are as enthralled by the physical comedy as the adults, while the more complex material hits its grown-up targets. The result: entertainment that is as critically praised as it is loved by a broad audience. Center Stage. $57 - $87.
