A live comedy experience in surround sound!

Con Coutis returns with his inimitable tech wizardry to search for a priceless artefact. To further his career, he’ll need to break in, steal it, make some jokes and get out alive before his parking runs out.

Joke Protocol is like being inside a really funny spy movie. To add to the immersion, the show makes use of surround sound and some other tech trickery you'll have to see to believe.
