One bee's high-stakes, hilarious odyssey to save the planet and his love life.

Written by Bernard Mc Mullan and Colin Hamell and directed by Carmel O Reilly, Bumbled is a fast-paced and brilliantly funny one-man play buzzing into town to celebrate the Listowel Food Fair. Hamell takes on the role of Pascal, a sharp-witted Irish honeybee on a high-stakes, cross-continental odyssey to save the global human food chain from environmental collapse. As Pascal frantically tries to educate humanity on the critical importance of bees, he must also hilariously navigate the trials of a long-distance romance with his French girlfriend, Marion. Blending eco-conscious urgency with physical comedy, Irish slow-dancing, and sheer heart, this exceptional solo performance delivers a powerful environmental message that perfectly captures the sustainable spirit of the festival.

This production is kindly supported by NOD Apiary (Ireland) www.nodglobal.com for the Listowel Food Fair.
