There and Back Again

Characteristics

• A family orientated, non-verbal performance for children up to the age of 7 and their parents.
• Approximately 45 minutes long (a shortened version of 10 to 30 minutes could be negotiated for set programs).
• Can be performed outside or inside.

This buffoonery is directly inspired by the other non-verbal, movement-based performances, where Clown Adyno explores his travels. He doesn’t want to ruin his clown shoes, so decides to use his own special cart. The problem is, it only has one wheel. It looks like Adyno will need help from the audience.

This performance combines juggling, jokes and magic tricks. Adyno will make everyone laugh with his clumsiness and his circus logic. He will tackle juggling with plates while finishing his journey showing off his skills on a unicycle.

Miming, gestures and movement is a big part of this performance.
