SLAVA'S SNOWSHOW: wordless clown theatre

SLAVA’S SNOWSHOW is not simply about clowns with horns, rehearsed falls and trumpets at the end of a performance. Slava represents the art of clowning in its simplicity and wordless poetry, able to delight adults and children alike and bring them together in shared moments where age does not matter. Multi-award-winning, Slava Polunin is considered “the Russian master who saved clowning” (The Evening Standard). His masterpiece, touring since 1993, carries audiences into a unique, limitless imaginary world where a scrap of paper can unleash snowstorms and time is lost as spectators remain in the theatre after the show to play with irresistible giant coloured balls. It is a world for everyone, where dreams become reality.

“Clowning is, at a certain point, a point of view on the world, an ability to see in a way that differs from what people usually see. It is a great pleasure to gather joyful people who live and create things in this dimension. Once you start, you cannot stop.” — Slava Polunin

“Emotionally overwhelming, invigorating, simply delicious. It takes us back to the innocent paradise of our childhood.” — Financial Times

“If you see only one show this year, let it be Slava’s Snowshow. And take the family!” — Daily Telegraph Review
