Pelo Cano (Down the Drain) – São Paulo

19:00 Pelo Cano (Down the Drain) – São Paulo

The experimental focus of Pelo Cano is having the traditional dramatic art of clowning reinterpreted by two women. They do not start from a previous text, but from trivial situations through which they disclose their world perspectives, revealing clowns’ inability to cope with reality. They use everyday items for purposes different from those they are meant for, freeing them from their utilitarian functions. The music is always sung and played by the clownesses, who play the guitar, the violin and the flute. Music is the basis for the clownesses’ gags in this silent show.
