Tarkabarka travelling stage

Circus theatre without words

- Compagnie Tarkabarka (LI)

Circus theatre without words. Humorous, surprising and touching. The Tarkabarka company delights with expressive theatre, fine clowning, lively acrobatics and poetic moments. Simply adorable! For young and old

One stage - 3 programmes:

KABUFF
a poetic and joyful clown theatre
The two charming clowns, their eager dog and a wooden box full of surprises take the audience on a journey of discovery peppered with artistry, music, dance, magic and a pinch of absurdity. Without using any words, the two entertain children and adults alike and make them lose track of time. Skilfully and humorously, the audience itself becomes part of the performance.

HOPPAA!
A clownish spectacle full of surprises Today is a big day, the travelling theatre is giving a performance here in town. The show is about to start! But where are the artists? Suddenly, a woman and a man find themselves unintentionally in the spotlight, exploring the colourful world of failure and unexpected success. With great enthusiasm, they cast a spell over us and whisk us away into a lightness of being.

THE SHOW - (guest performance by Scheppe & Boko)
enchanting clowning without words
Scheppe and Boko are ready, the big magic show can begin! If only their radio didn't take on a life of its own and throw them from one unexpected situation into the next! With hilarious ideas, lots of improvisation and the active help of the audience, they do everything they can to keep the show going. How do you think it will end? Classic clowning paired with technical finesse and improvisation comedy. A show to cheer and laugh along with which leaves no eye dry.
