Let a band of talented and highly committed goofballs make a musical out of the "best worst movie", and what do you expect? This. I expect this: a tongue-in-cheek sendup that never lets being in on the joke interfere with delivering seriously impressive performances alongside midnight-movie camp....

You don't need to be a fan of clubs or clowns to fall in love with Club Clown. What an absolute delight. (Hmmm... Should I go back to Club Clown?)...

I have never seen a Four Clowns show that I didn't leave with a face sore from smiling, and this one did not disappoint. Zach Steele and Adam Carpenter -- or rather TR and Martin, respectively -- play off each other with a level of the classic funny man/straight man routine only achieved by a pair who's worked together for many years (as they have).

This show is the TOTAL PACKAGE. The script itself is interesting and well-written, and the production is beautifully conceived. Each actor is spot-on, funny, and heartfelt, and when the "big reveal" moment happens, you'll be frozen in your seats. Get to this show as soon as you can; it's a real find, and as soon as the word hits the street, tickets will be flying......
