Beau & Aero is a fabulous show. Smart, silly and wonderful. I am telling everyone I know to go to see them - don't miss this show. You will laugh so much . . . you will cry with joy. Not to be missed!... full review

Beau & Aero is charming, delightful and beautiful! The clowning and physical comedy are first rate, with truthful humor and daring acrobatics. But the best surprise is what good actors these two clowns are. At one point during a particularly touching mourning scene, I thought to myself, I could have been watching Tennessee williams. I loved the show and I've been recommending it to everyone I see. ... full review

Beau and Aero are skilled clowns who provide some truly hilarious moments. As a comedy writer and performer, I felt like I got a lot out of watching these two create games without talking and using just a handful of balloons. One of my favorite shows in the Fringe. Go check it out.... full review

True artistry at work. Beau and Aero is full of fun, charm and creative play. The show itself is at once hilarious and poignant. The performances are a superb mix of outlandish and subtle. One of those shows that is over too soon because you can't get enough. This is a fringe MUST SEE!!... full review

Some of the most fun and original clowning I've seen this side of Charlie Chaplain. Beau & Aero are absolutely amazing, and I'm looking forward to recommending their show to everyone I know! See you guys in San Diego! ... full review

Loved it! A great example of a show that is really delightful but up until last night, we heard, had small audiences. Thankfully it was full house last night and everyone, including myself, laughed and giggled throughout. Simplicity mixed with talent...and the most creative use of balloons I've ever seen!... full review

What can I say! It was a terrific show. I laughed and wanted to play. I am a most serious being and this show took me outside myself and brought me back to the basics of theatre. It was two people onstage giving everything they had while executing grandeur skills. Amica is beyond flexible and what her and David create together onstage is quite beautiful. The moment the balloon popped and Amica begins to cry well I must say that was one of the highlights of the piece for me--there was something so powerful about that moment. They reinforced in my mind that one need not need a narrative to tell a story-they just need heart! GO see them this weekend you will not regret it!!... full review
CHAIRMAN BARNES certified reviewer June 21, 2014
Clowning is hard! Silent clowning is even harder. But, Beau and Aero pull off their one-hour show with a breezy easiness that belies the difficulties of such a feat. What's even more amazing is that much of show is built around a simple, common party accessory. Their Punch and Judy antics, masterful acrobatic skills and delightful audience rapport make this a show well worth your time!... full review
MARK HEIN uncertified reviewer June 22, 2014
Inspired, glorious clowning -- Flying through air with the greatest of unease on a wish and a balloon, the gently pompous Beau (David Cantor) and indomitable Aero (Amica Hunter) blend the gentle sweetness of Laurel & Hardy with a romantic tension like Tracy and Hepburn. All in silence. Keeping it elegantly simple (take that, Cirque du Spectacle), they mock, mug and mope with non-stop energy and invention, making us almost believe they -- and we -- really can fly. Flap your arms, laugh, cheer, cry a little, and fall utterly in love. You'll be so very, very glad you did. Beau & Aero brings back a millennia-old tradition from the edge of obscurity, and shows us why people love clowns (even I, who almost never have). ... full review
