Lost Locos

Paul Morocco and Ole, the award winning unorthodox music comedy show, with performances from Edinburgh Theater Festival to Just For Laughs Montreal Comedy Festival to Melbourne Comedy and Adelaide Arts Festival and worldwide television and theatre appearances presents a new show with a new cast, introducing: Lost Locos, a flamboyant fusion of song, music and comedy.Lost Locos are a mix between “3 Amigos“, “Buena Vista Social Club“ and “Gypsy Kings“. These three crazy latinos are lost in the love of themselves (and their mamas): They wildly play, spin and throw their Spanish guitars at an exhilarating pace while taking you on a journey of slapstick, musical comedy and virtuoso playing. The Three Latino Pop Idol Stars will make experienced smiles shine like virgin olive oil. Surprises come out of their mouths and they do amazing things with pingpong balls... They will have the audience eating Spanish Tortillas out of their hands. Lost Locos are a celebration of everything that is latin... sexy rhythm and Cuban heals.
