Details

Roll up, roll up for this opera-ballet circus spectacular! In both dream and reality, follow Pierrot on his quest to gain a place amongst other Sideshows' acts. This unique interpretation of Pierrot Lunaire adds new choreography to Schoenberg's iconic score. It's paired with the award-winning Sideshows, an unhinged circus show set to a jazz-inspired score by Leo Geyer (as heard on BBC Radio 3). Sung and danced, freakish and dead funny, The Clown of Clowns comes to Grimeborn for four performances only.
