FLAWED GENIUS is a heart-achingly funny story of lost love and frustrated ambition, created with Canadian clown guru Sue Morrison. Combining decayed vaudeville glamor, the pathos of a beleaguered Chaplin, unpredictable audience interaction and dark British humor in an exploration of the life's glories and failures, every show is a unique theatrical experience.
Bursting with passion, unrequited love and burning ambition, our flawed hero literally explodes onto the stage, desperate to prove something. Extracting the battered paraphernalia of his life from the equally battered old piano which he drags with him, he takes us on a whirlwind tour of love, loss, frustration and triumph, via piano lessons, latin lessons, science lessons, tragic tales of stuffed birds and flown girlfriends.
Flawed Genius is a classic clown piece with a dark twist, exposing the most human of weaknesses and vulnerabilities. Directed by Sue Morrison, it embodies her trademark style, combining emotional intensity and honesty with a quirky post-modern absurdity and improvised interaction with audience that makes every show a unique and remarkable experience. |
