The Artists

The Artists follows the lives of a group of eccentric street performers set in the mythical busker's paradise of Wybridge, a fictional UK town.

The characters treat the town as an underground artistic haven, the perfect place for them to perform their 'culturally significant' and 'ground-breaking' street performances in what they perceive as a legendary ongoing artistic festival. In reality, its residents are utterly indifferent to the talent in their midst.

This unlikely ensemble of "street artists" come together as they jostle to attract attention from real and unsuspecting members of the public, performing a mix of musical comedy, scripted scenes and semi-improvised street performances much to the onlookers' bemusement.
