A Fine Mess
A Knock-Out Action Comedy
Following the incredible success of the five-star theatre hit Knock-Out, get ready for A Fine Mess! A spectacular tribute to the action movies of the ‘80’s: think Lethal Weapon and Die Hard. Set in a remote desert town, the story follows a young woman, her brother, and their ailing mother, caught in a downward spiral of poverty and despair. With bills piling up, they make a desperate choice to rob a gas station. But what starts as a small-time heist quickly spirals into a whirlwind of guns, betrayal, and chaos. Just when all hope seems lost, the situation takes a thrilling, unexpected turn... Jakop Ahlbom Company, ISH Dance Collective, and DeLaMar join forces to blow you away with this explosive action comedy. Packed with moody music, outrageous slapstick, and jaw-dropping special effects!
