The story

Rundown Cayman Comedy Revue in George Town

Rundown is a satirical comedy revue created in 1991 by Dave Martins and produced by the Cayman National Cultural Foundation, mixing skits, monologues and songs that poke fun at Caymanian politics, culture and current events, staged primarily at the Harquail Theatre in George Town. Smart-casual attire suits an evening at the theatre, and audiences familiar with recent Caymanian headlines get the most out of the show's topical humor.

Created in 1991 by longtime Cayman resident Dave Martins, Rundown became the Cayman National Cultural Foundation's flagship theatre production for more than 25 years, a comedy revue built from skits, monologues and original songs that skewer everyday Caymanian life.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Its distinguishing feature is topicality: each edition is built fresh from that year's local news, controversies and cultural trends, functioning as a running satirical commentary on Caymanian public life rather than a fixed script performed unchanged year to year

02

The mystery stays covered

Being referenced in a Rundown sketch has become a recognized marker of local relevance, giving the show a cultural feedback loop with the community it lampoons that few other Cayman productions share
