NEWSFLASH: AN SRO PREMIERE FOR “FRIDO”
LAST SUNDAY, 13 SEPTEMBER!

 

Feel like having a few laughs? Give “Frido” a try, touted as a stand-up comedy uncluttered with words. Just the comic contortions of the body of a clown to the beat of music. Whose body might yet create a world that rings out with laughter.

Spare set décor.

“Following the lack of communication during the [coronavirus] confinement, what we need is an intimate theater, not a pompous and grandiloquent one,” Jaime Pastor, the mime-clown of the show, claims.

Along the same line, he adds that there’s a need for a different language, “other forms” of feeling”. He says, “We feel by means of the body, music, humor and imagination.”

It’s hard enough to tickle the audience’s funny bone with just a few words. But a mute stand-up? See what “Frido” can do!
