the world brings fools together...

So last night I saw 'Johnny Patterson, The Singing Irish Clown' at the Project Arts Center.
AWESOME.
Just AWESOME.

It was a visually stunning show. Three actors told the life story of Johnny Patterson. One was the narrator/ Johnny/ other various characters, one was a live musician who also played a few characters and one was a completely silent 'traditional' clown who play characters and re-enacted moments...

its hard to explain but it was amazing. It was very 'Warhorse'-esque in the physicality. We stay for a talk-back after the show which was with the main clown (who played Johnny) and was the writer.

Then we headed back to the apartment, made No-Bake cookies and a fort (which was called 'The Big Top' in the living room.
It was most excellent.

I want to run away with the circus.
