Clowns in Dystopia — Kulturhuset, Röda Salongen, Hässleholm
Description was written before the event

A group of survivors attempts to build something - shelter, celebration, a future - amid the ruins, through madness, failure, poetry and clown logic. The performance blends slapstick, circus arts and absurd humour with striking visuals, exploring how to keep hope alive when the world falls apart.

The clowns have lost their manuals. They try anyway, again and again, even as everything burns, the ground shakes and someone forgot the lines. Absurd, beautiful, slightly unsettling - and it smells of burnt plastic.

Performing: Ida Stenman, Christoffer Remberger, Jan Unestam and Jonathan Young. Director: Bim Mason. Produced by Karavan.
