Third and last day on the Fish & Chips festival. British company Bash Street comes back on stage with another show, Cliffhanger. Directly inspired by Buster Keaton’s “Convict 13”, the silent-movie style performance takes us back to the golden era of reality-on-screen for 50 minutes...with collapsing buildings, escapology, slap-stick humour and live piano accompaniment.

The story has the usual elements: a good, innocent café waiter who falls in love with a costumer on one side; on the other, a baddy, prison escapee who will embroil him in a series of (unfortunate) events.
