“Danger Mouse is a superhero, saving the world. The evil Greenback is out to stop him. In the cartoon, the toad is always behind the desk, but here is he live on stage. He’s scary.
“Danger Mouse is not a superhero like Spiderman spinning his webs. He’s just very clever and smart - though his sidekick just messes it all up really!”
Matt is based at Bunn Leisure, a key part of their character shows.

“I have been here since the start of the season, and it is an amazing place to work”, Matt says. “I can’t think of anywhere that has got the range of characters and the quality of characters that we have got here.”
Danger Mouse Saves The World will be performed every Monday until August 30.
