Now in it's twelfth year, Toronto Festival of Clowns aims to bring together clowns and physical theatre artists of all disciplines and backgrounds and provide a common space to showcase their work. This year the Toronto Festival of Clowns is honoured to welcome more world class clowns including:
Angela Delfini Explains It All For You, by legendary master clown: John Towsen. My Big Fat German Pu
ppet Show, performed by muppets puppeteer and Just For Laughs 'Best Comedy Award' winner Frank Meschkuleit. International crowd favourite Michael Trautman will show you what happens when you put a clown in a room with 1000 ping pongs in King Pong's Ping Pong Rodeo. The festival also features several Cirque Du Soleil alumni, international guests and up and coming clowns to watch! Join us at our Opening Night Preview Cabaret hosted by local and international darlings Morro & Jasp. Past festivals have hosted some of North America’s top clowns, including David Craig (Roseneath Theatre, Na**lm the Magnificent), Eric Davis (Red Bastard), Dean Gilmour (Theatre Smith-Gilmour), Sue Morrison (Institute of Canadian Clowning), Guiseppe Condello (PhD Mime), Fiona Griffiths (Theatre Resource Centre) and John Turner (Mump & Smoot).
