FEAR OF A RED-NOSED PLANET

Thursday, September 9, 2010

Intrepid O.C. Weekly reviewer Joel Beers has posted his interview with CLOWNZILLA: ILLEGAL ALIENS writer/director Eli Simon at the Orange Curtains blog, and it is, as always, a fascinating read:

Illegal Aliens is mythological in nature. It's my saga of the creation of Clowns, being born on Clown Planet, blowing the planet up, traveling through space to Earth, and how they came to live among us. The troupe is tackling issues of assimilation, immigration and persecution. So, it's a lot more serious in places than my previous shows. But there are also really entertaining moments along the way.

Would we miss this chance to remind you that tickets remain available for this weekend's performance? Indeed we would not. $20 general / $10 students and kids. 8pm Friday, 7pm Saturday, 2pm Friday.

TWO FOR TWO

Backstage.com on CLOWNZILLA: ILLEGAL ALIENS:

The evening is a skilled mixture of scripted bits, off-the-cuff clowning, slapstick, Theatre of the Absurd, and social and political satire poking fun not just at Arizona's posture toward immigrants but at the entire human race... [the] clowns are eminently sympathetic, even while evoking gales of laughter.
Some tickets still available for this weekend's performances!
$20 General / $10 Student and Kids.
Friday @ 8pm, Saturday @ 7pm, Sunday @ 2pm.


WELL-HONED CLOWNIC TIMING AND THE MOVEMENT AGAINST IMMIGRATION

The first review of CLOWNZILLA: ILLEGAL ALIENS is up at the O.C. Register, courtesy Eric Marchese: 


Has a troupe of generic clowns ever been so used to zero in on bigotry, racism, xenophobia and cultural conformity? The fact that they generate laughs while doing so is all the more remarkable... [the Clownzilla clowns] are expert mimes, using their faces and bodies to express a wide range of emotions. Despite the outwardly serious subject matter, they also garner plenty of well-deserved laughs, displaying well-honed clownic timing.
Some tickets for this weekend are still available! $20 General / $10 Students and Kids. Get 'em here while you can:
