16425771_10154901626563886_8789029458494009940_n.jpgClowning and physical theatre represent the origins of comedy which was initially a privilege for the upper classes…put on by the court jesters in China and Egypt thousands of years ago.

Today, drawing from many influences modern and contemporary, especially the white faced mime of France’s Marcel Marceau, we have…Under the Big Top!…a middle school comedy of clowns, mimes and Mr. Bean-like characters.
