Circus Gothic: One Woman Tour-de-Force Performance

CIRCUS GOTHIC: Performance

CIRCUS GOTHIC is a classic masterwork of Canadian Theatre written and performed by Jan Kudelka. 

It is the true story of 28 Canadian Clowns on tour during the 70's under the leadership of the late and great and legendary Canadian teacher of clown, Richard Pochinko.

The 23 exotic circus, middle and working class characters of Circus Gothic form an unforgettable glimpse into a down and out American Mudshow touring through the Maritimes.

Many productions of Circus Gothic have taken place over the years in high schools, universities, even prisons.

Kudelka performs solo in the original celebrated format as when it took Canadian theatre by storm in the wake of Billy Bishop and Maggie and Pierre.
