Running November 21- December 7, the CSULB University Players and Los Angeles-based clown troupe Four Clowns will present a modern retelling of French playwright Alfred Jarry’s Ubu Roi entitled Ubu the Sh*t.

With clown training and techniques incorporated into the rehearsal process by Four Clowns’ Artistic Director and CSULB Theatre Arts alum Jeremy Aluma and members of the Four Clowns company, the undergraduate cast has been given the opportunity to explore the art of clown first-hand, creating a truly unique version of Jarry’s absurdist comedy.
