Tickets
Award-winning Canadian Clown Artist Candy Roberts assumes her alter ego in this smart and daring piece about a lovable hoser’s hilarious attempt at self-improvement.
He’s no “idiom,” and in a dynamic display of stupidity, Larry offers stand-up comedy and life-couching wisdom, before discovering something hidden deep within his psyche.
Bob and Dog Mckenzie meets Feminism? Self-help meets headbanging? Gear Down, Big Rig, you might get sideways.
“I don’t transcend in the theatre on a regular basis, but Larry opened me up and took me to a higher plane. Roberts’s clowning technique is first-rate — once she gets you laughing, she will not fucking let up.”- Colin Thomas
Latecomers up to 15 minutes after the show begins.
