The Right Size

The Right Size

The Right Size theatre company is a British comedy double act made up of Hamish McColl and Sean Foley. They first met at a clown school in Paris late in the 1980s, studying with Philippe Gaulier, and formed their own small-scale theatre company. This company produced "Stop Calling Me Vernon" about an old double act, "Do You Come Here Often?", telling the story of two clowns stuck in the same bathroom for twenty-five years - the latter was put on at the 1997 Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
