Inspired by top hockey players and artificial intelligence, the two-performance evening will feature Good game (work in progress) by Susanna Pukkila and AI Clown by Joanna Bassi.
We will win tonight! Good game (work in progress) performed by Susanna Pukkila is inspired by world class ice hockey players. It combines clown, drag and character comedy. It’s ridiculous, charming and playful – and invites the audience to join in.
Also on stage, AI Clown by Joanna Bassi (France/United Kingdom). There were many ways to become a clown: traditionally skills would be passed on from generation to generation …More recently you could go to clown schools and workshops …But today things have drastically changed, today there is AI. Ladies and Gentlemen here is the first AI clown.
The performances are aimed at adults (age recommendation 13+) and the language is English.
