Jump
‘Don’t go to the cinema, don’t stay in and watch TV. Go and see Jump’ THE GUARDIAN.
Meet your new nightmare neighbours: the family from Jump have swapped their dust pans and brushes for swords and nunchakus - and they’re ready to do battle, Tae-kwon-do style…
A hit at the Edinburgh Festival and on stages across the world, Jump is a high-octane display of the ancient Korean fighting art of Tae-kwon-do, including jaw-dropping flips, dazzling acrobatics, sword fights and wickedly observed kung-fu pastiches… crossed with a sitcom.
The show centres on a typical, but spectacularly agile, Korean family - from the draconian grandfather and drunken uncle to karate-chopping mother. Each is a martial arts hotshot, all possessing championship level Tae-kwon-do and gymnastic skills, who enjoy nothing more than challenging each other to martial arts showdowns.
