My overall impression

We are the 0% tells a story I think we can all relate to. It’s a story we don’t like to hear about, and yet we are engaged the entire time because clowns are telling us the story! The members of clownma dell’arte all are very skilled at clowning, there is no denying that. It is obvious from the moment you meet each clown, that they are having a great time, and that love for their own work is definitely contagious to the audience. I very much enjoyed my experience during this production, and had a lot of pure fun throughout. The only thing I would say is that a lot of the clowns would act as independent units from time to time, and I feel like the show could have been so much more cohesive if the ensemble really worked as an ensemble, as opposed to a battle to have the most attention (even though that’s what clowns love to do!). Kudos to everyone on their great work! This is definitely a show to see!
