The Boys Are Back – Antiques Rogue Show
The Boys Are Back – Antiques Rogue Show
AOTNZ Tour 6 Aug – 4 Sep 2010
Antiques Rogue Show is back – touring as The Antiques Rogue Show 2010
It’s the same side splitting show as that toured in 2007, except that every show is different. In the tradition of the venerable BBC show of the same name, Patrick Duffy and Greg Ellis (and Patrick with Ian Harcourt performing from Hawera to Hokianga 7-16 August), ask the public to bring along their favourite family antiques for an ‘expert’ opinion of their worth.
Audiences are invited into the genteel world of stately manors and country fetes as the two performers, with the help of the hapless owners expound on the mystery, history and likely value of various heirlooms in a manner that has no relevance to real history or artistic appreciation – or any worthwhile knowledge whatsoever. The histories, knowledge and valuations are completely bogus, but the comedy is 100% genuine.
