A lecture about clowns, a contemporary performance for those who love and those who hate them
Two scholars take on the challenge of presenting a lecture when things take unexpected turns.The show deconstructs the mythical and fictionalized image of the clown, researching the many meanings the profession has gained over time. At the same time, it continuously creates allegories, playful scenarios and fictionalized situations.
