CASUAL VIOLENCE
the multi award winning dark comedy troupe
"Casual Violence mix Game of Thrones, The League of Gentlemen and Roald Dahl to create dark, twisted and silly skits"
The Sunday Times
Casual Violence are the UK's most physically attractive comedy troupe.
After ten years of mild to medium success as a live act (enough to perform at major West End venues, win fringe comedy awards and star on BBC Radio 4; not enough to convince their parents that this was a good use of a decade) the group are now releasing their first six episode series - MURDER FOR DUMMIES, a comedy-horror murder mystery - independently on YouTube.
Watch the first trailer for the series and find out more below:
Back in the nineties, ventriloquism was bigger than the Spice Girls and Princess Diana put together...
...you remember that, right? Of course you do. It definitely happened.
When beloved British ventriloquist Keith Flapp was found murdered in his West End dressing room in 1999, it devastated the nation.
Today, a documentary filmmaker tries to solve the case... but wait: does everyone she's interviewing have a motive?
And... has the killer returned to bump off anyone who might incriminate them?
In this unique spin on a classic whodunnit, a true crime documentary is our equivalent of the country manor, or the sun-drenched island, or the fancy train...
It's a 'contained space' where all our suspects are gathered, individually yet together, as filmmaker Esther Farrago takes the role of Benoit Blanc or Hercule Poirot, slowly unravelling the mystery.
But will she identify the killer before all her interviewees get gruesomely murdered?
