A clown that is not a clown

A clown in south America is more like a comedian than a children's entertainer. I've been to two clown shows since arriving in Buenos Aires. The first was a one man show by one of the guests at the opening party in Baradero.


The second was a bigger show by the students of a clown school in Buenos Aires. The show was held in a theatre and lasted about 2 hours. The entire performance was in Spanish. I could only understand some words but the combination of the music, sounds, lights and gestures meant I could understand the show.

The opening scene.
