FOUR CLOWNS Comes To Long Beach Playhouse Studio Theater 3/4
By: Gabrielle Sierra
Thursday, Mar. 4th, an exceptional cast will open an 8 show run of FOUR CLOWNS conceived and directed by Jeremy Aluma at the Long Beach Playhouse Studio Theater. FOUR CLOWNS marks the inaugural collaboration between the 81 year old company, Long Beach Playhouse and the 4 year old company Alive Theatre.
FOUR CLOWNS is a physical, musical and emotional journey into what it means to be human. Follow four clowns who represent the four clown archetypes; the sad clown, the mischievous clown, the angry clown and the nervous clown as they lament and reminisce about their past. As the old adage goes, ‘laughter is the best medicine' but laughter comes most earnestly when reflecting on past sorrows. As the clowns tell their tales of woe and elation from childhood to adulthood we discover that they are all the same, and so are we. The show contains graphic violence, strong sexual situations and other wanton behavior.Alexis Jones as Sad ClownKevin Klein as Mischievous Clown
