Non-verbal cult clown show
A comedy classic and cult show from one of the world’s greatest clowns. Paolo Nani, alone on stage, performs the same story in 15 entirely different ways: Drunk, western style, horror, back to front, circus, surprised, vulgar, magical, etc.
The quality of the performance is based on its extreme simplicity: No scenography, no special light, no special effect, no special costume but an actor’s tour de force, precision, timing and fantasy.
Stuffed with gags from start to finish, this ingenious performance has had audiences throughout the world in stitches, winning awards and critical acclaim in more than 40 countries.
