The Brazilian company LUME present this clown-theatre show, a mix of magic, singing, egg juggling and more, featuring the talents of the clown Teotonio.

The clown Teotônio presents his “Spettacolo Artistico”, a unique combination of magic, balancing acts, contortionism, singing and egg juggling. Contagious play, chaos and sometimes, disaster, Teotônio’s show is a sublime demonstration of the anarchic potential of laughter and the guerilla force of the clown.

Over the past 25 years, LUME has consolidated its position as one of Brazil’s most influential theatre ensembles. Through its performances, workshops, cultural barters, work exchanges, theoretical reflection, on the stage and in the street, LUME celebrates theatre as the art of meeting and an ideal space within which to valve the human-being.

La Scarpetta... confirms to us why we all cry at the episodes of another great clown, Charlie Chaplin, proving why... he made so many souls break into smiles. The ingenuity and human stupidity... a resource to make from life, art... (Ana Virginia Santiago, JORNAL AGORA, Ilheus, Brazil)
