Theatre By The Sea Presents The Airborne Comedians 8/5
By: Gabrielle Sierra
What started 20 years ago as a snowball juggling contest in a laundromat and grew into an outrageous comedy juggling act called The Airborne Comedians returns by popular demand to Theatre By The Sea as part of the 2011 Children's Festival on Friday, August 5, 2011 for two performances only.
Whether balanced atop seven-foot unicycles or frantically flinging objects at one another, this pair is a sure bet to make you laugh. Over the past fifteen years, this duo has entertained audiences of all ages and backgrounds. They juggle a cornucopia of objects including (but not limited to) baseball bats, lawn chairs, flaming torches, children, hats, clubs, balls, rings, electric guitars, machetes, flaming lawn chairs, fruit, and random objects from the crowd.The Airborne Comedians have performed throughout North America, Europe and as far away as Singapore. A juggling/comedy duo, who combine incredible and unorthodox juggling skills with an outrageous sense of humor, the Airborne Comedians are not to be missed! New vaudevillian Dan Foley is one of New England's premiere variety performers. He has appeared on WCVB -TV's Chronicle, MTV, TNN, FOX and PBS. For over 13 years, he and Joel Harris - as the Airborne Comedians - have been featured street performers at Faneuil Hall. Most recently, Dan Foley performed onstage with the band Phish, and appears on their DVD, Bittersweet Motel.
