They Gotta Be Secret Agents

Like the callow rays of springtime sun, the Secret Agents emerge from a winter hidden away from public view.  

Although they were tucked into blankets of snow and ice, The Agents were not still.  They were not silent.  Nay, they were plotting treacherous missions that will take them into the darks of Eastern Europe and (hopefully) back to tackle still more cities across the nation.  Will they have the stamina to summit this Everestian task?  

Is anybody, anywhere, safe from the infectiously fun bravery and charm of They Gotta Be Secret Agents?! 

In an effort to stave off the impending doom of almost certainly fatal missions abroad, The Secret Agents are calling for a rally of moral support on their home turf.  Like the Great Molasses Flood of 1919 they aim to envelope Boston in their sweet, somewhat nostalgic, stylings.  


They want to smack you senseless, leave you jaw-dropped, drooling and craving more…  

More…  

and Still MORE.  

Until the ravenous energy of hundreds of Bostonians catapults The Secret Agents pell mell along their daunting path to world domination! 

Have the Secret Agents gone totally mad?  We are forced to hearken back to Junior High dioramas.  Something tells us that rebels have suffered great defeats against authority in the Bunker Hill neighborhood.  Could a mission in Charlestown really give The Agents the momentum they need?

Well, that is entirely up to you.
  Tell your friends, tell your neighbors, raise the rallying cry that will bolster The Secret Agents in their Hometown Mission!

The fearless Secret Agents have been selected as part of an elite team to Bring Down Prague Castle!  


The biggest ancient castle in the world, Prague Castle dates back to the 9th century.  It witnessed the The Second Prague Defenestration in 1618, which triggered the Bohemian Revolution, and it houses the Czech Crown Jewels.   


The Secret Agents will infiltrate by posing as
Prague Fringe Festival performers and gain access to the castle through its underground theater the Divadlo Inspirace. There they will perform for 9 nights, May 28-June 5, 2010, draw hundreds of unsuspecting comrades to the scene, and inspire a cacophony of applause so uproarious they will Bring Down the House.


Could this possibly be possible?  Could such a duo exist?  Do the Agents really think they can actually pull this one off?


No strangers to the art of conquest, our intrepid Agents have procured the help of none other than the
Jim Henson Foundation.   In a surreptitious partnership code named “Grant Money” the Jim Henson Foundation will be providing state of the art assistance to The Agents, who are already scheduling training simulations at theaters in Boston and Philadelphia.   


Stay tuned to find out how They Gotta Be Secret Agents fare in their newest Mission.

In the beginning of September,2009, the Secret Agents were charged with infiltrating the famously infamous and irreverent San Francisco Fringe Festival in order to surreptitiously unleash their unique blend of partner acrobatics, physical comedy and puppetry on unsuspecting west coasters.  

Did they succeed?  How is it even possible?


Here is the breakdown:

  • Boxes of materials shipped from Boston to Secret SF outpost: 5
  • Babies smuggled across state borders: 1
  • Total trips over the Golden Gate Bridge or under the bay: 19
  • Boxes used in show: 11
  • Pairs of underwear acting as Tim's onstage disguise: 3
  • Pairs of underwear acting as Bonnie's onstage disguise: 4
  • Computer programmers turned flawless Secret Agent technicians: 2
  • Mission Burritos eaten: 4
  • Unsuspecting witnesses subjected to our show: hundreds!

So, was the mission a success?  

Yes...  Oh, yes...  Was it ever.

Shocked by the sheer power of They Gotta Be Secret Agent's joie de vivre, the SF Fringe Festival bestowed Bonnie and Tim with Best Physical Comedy and Techie's Choice/Best of Fringe Awards!  

In addition to indoctrinating masses of Cali folk into Secret Agent Life, Bonnie and Tim explored the city, caught up with great friends and family, saw some beautiful art, watched exceptional Fringy theater, and ate their fill.

Are The Secret Agents going to sit back on their haunches after this second successful leg of world domination?   

No...  Oh, no, no, no...  

They are scheming, they are plotting.  Will they accept a new mission in your city?


Tune in here to find out.

Keep yourself updated or beware: you may miss your indoctrination into They Gotta Be Secret Agents' World of Wonder.

    We swing from the ceiling, fling each other across stage, and delight in both the impossibly grand and the intensely intimate.
