Welcome to the website of

Come and see Nephew Spike Bones premiere his 'queered' Punch & Judy show at London's Covent Garden May Fayre on Sunday 12th May - from Noon onwards. Spike Bones' Punch and Judy show is a new perspective on an old tradition: both Mr. Punch and Ms. Judy take centre-stage as they work (and sometimes shirk) their responsibilities. Classic adversaries like the devious devil, the pompous police officer and the carnivorous crocodile all return to meddle with Punch & Judy, who, as always, delight audiences with their witty responses and slapstick takedowns. Suitable for all ages - from 1 to 100, Spike Bones’ Punch & Judy deconstructs and reconstructs the form to make a show that is fun and inclusive for everyone! “That’s the way to do it!”This project has been funded by the European Union’s ‘Horizon 2020 Research & Innovation Programme’ and by the University of Exeter’s ‘Public Engagement with Research Fund’.
