About us

About us…

For more than a decade, Hunkypunk has been developing its unique approach to comic half-mask and theatre-making. We’ve staged our comic mask work at theatres and festivals across the UK,  delighting audiences young and old with its unique style of theatre.

‘Hunkypunk’ is an old Somerset word for a grotesque or monstrous face carved on the side of a church . In contrast to its cousin the gargoyle, which is part of the drainage system, a hunky punk has no function beyond ornament. We hope to have some function beyond ornament, but above all, we hope to entertain, inspire, and delight.
