3 well meaning, yet misguided clowns, attempt to create epic theatre. The show devolves into Shakespeare. www.clowncabaret.com

"A clown is a poet who is also an orangutan." - Anonymous

Clown Cabaret has been making people laugh since 2010. Our goal has been to provide a fun laboratory space for clowns to develop and perform new material. We have also been helping audiences learn more about theater and clowning.  We want to inspire through our own work. We want to reclaim the title "Clown" from all the poseurs in Washington, DC." 

It has been said the clown is the ultimate actor. In "Clown Cabaret Presents: Delusions of Grandeur," we take material we have spent the last couple of years developing at our monthly show and combine it with a bit of Shakespeare. See the hard work in July at the Capital Fringe Festival...witness as slapstick devolves into Shakespeare. 

All donations towards "Clown Cabaret Presents: Delusions of Grandeur," will help defray the costs of participating in the Capital Fringe Festival. And then, we can grow from there! Please help us make this possible!
