Jon, the chaotic student/caretaker of Frank the Dog, breaks a precious artifact and has to redeem himself through a series of bizarre, yet playful, challenges and games.
If successful Jon will acquire the status of ‘master’, repair the artefact and redeem himself.
​
Along the way Jon is hampered in his quest; with set-backs, twists, turns, and the interference of the sinister Cyprian Londt.
Funny, fast paced, stylish, ‘clowning’, set in a ‘home-made’, magical, world full of contraptions, illusions and mystifying objects.
