Dreamgun: FILM READS Comes to the Adelaide Fringe 2019

Getting it wrong has never felt so right! Irish comedy weirdos 'Dreamgun' amuse and exasperate cinephiles in equal measure with their skewed, joke-stuffed and wholly unrehearsed takes on established cinematic favourites. Dreamgun brings 'Film Reads' to Adelaide Fringe for the first time, performing a different classic movie reimagined with nonsense every night!

"Consistently sharp, rapid-fire funny writing, crackling performances" IRISH TIMES "I love Dreamgun so blooming much" David O'DOHERTY "Hilarious live read-throughs of brilliantly written film classics" DARA BRIAIN

Biographical Details Dreamgun is a comedy conglomerate founded in 2014 by Stephen Colfer, Gavin Drea, Heber Hanly and James McDonnell. Their series of short films, including Millennials, Gym Gravy and Back in Town have been viewed by people on their phones at house parties over 289,808 times. Two more views and YouTube will give them a free hat. Dreamgun made their Edinburgh Fringe debut in 2015 with their sketch comedy show, Chaos Theory. Their follow up show, Mimes in Time, had a sell-out run at Dublin Fringe Festival and was nominated for the Bewley's Little Gem Award, which it did not win. Got a free hat though. They now spend their days writing and performing Dreamgun Film Reads, a comedy show where they take a beloved film script and stuff it full of jokes and nonsense. Each script is then performed live by actors and comedians who haven't had a chance to rehearse beforehand. Film Reads has had sold out runs at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in 2018 and at the Dublin Fringe in 2017 and 2018. They are bringing their adaptation of the Lord of the Rings trilogy to the prestigious Vicar Street in 2019.
