Umbilical Brothers

The sound effects in an Umbilical Brothers show come from the performers' own voices. David Collins and Shane Dundas mix those effects with physical comedy and dialogue, taking an everyday situation and building it into something elaborate and theatrical, usually by playing games with what the audience thinks it's seeing and hearing. Their credits include international touring and the Sydney Opera House, and on television, The Sideshow and The Upside Down Show. They've performed at corporate events too, for finance, telecommunications and technology companies among others. For a company night that wants comedy with some theatre to it, they're a smart choice. They're based in Sydney.
