None of Your Business

greg nussen · June 29, 2025 certified reviewer
Reshma’s clowning is deceptively simple in execution. Every glance, every movement, is momentous. This may have the simplest premise of any clown show - and for that reason is abundantly funny and captivating. She’s a genius folks... full review

El Mago Loco

greg nussen · June 29, 2025 certified reviewer
Exceptional. Linzy is extraordinary. The clowning is so precise and raucously funny, but the show strikes more than that - using the stage to also clue us in to innate prejudices and assumptions of identity. ... full review

Dragonfish

greg nussen · June 28, 2025 certified reviewer
Soleil rattled my entire physiognomy. Dragonfish is like being invited into someone’s pulsating open wound - it is the kind of show which makes you reconsider your hardest, most calcified assumptions of yourself and of the world. It is easily one of the most extraordinary performance pieces I’ve ever seen.... full review

Me, Myself and Other

Diana is a natural storyteller whose show is light and relatable and fun - which is amazing considering some of the big weighty themes she explores. I was fully immersed and felt as if I was just sitting on her couch gabbing. ... full review

Todd Macabre

greg nussen · June 23, 2025 certified reviewer
At once a case-study in precise clowning and a gorgeous revelation of the people inside us that we keep tucked away, Todd Macabre is, in other words, a beautiful marriage of form and content. One of this festival's best shows by a country mile.... full review

A Historical Gay Comedy Starring Nancy Reagan; clown show

greg nussen · June 22, 2025 certified reviewer
One of the most surprising shows I've ever seen. Filled with depth and shaking with garish humor - Seamus is a force.... full review

How Can I Keep From Singing?

greg nussen · June 20, 2025 certified reviewer
Cam is one of a kind. This is a magisterial experience. There truly is nothing else like it. I kind of can't believe it? It blends soulful meditation with community solidarity with Andy Kaufman-like buffoonery. How does a performer make you cry from the depths of you and a moment later make you squeal with laughter? I don't know, but Cam does it.... full review
