Dimitri Bogatirev brings together the best traditions of circus arts and physical comedy in the unique theatrical event, AGA-BOOM (a spin on the Russian word for paper, "boomaga").  Together, three world-renowned clowns, equipped with an arsenal of bizarre props and matchless talents, create a series of vivacious vignettes and interactive mayhem set against a towering punch-away paper wall.  With a knack for mischief and the ability to make even the most ordinary tasks extraordinary, the ensemble turns laundry detergent bottles into movie cameras, substitutes bags of garbage for beach balls, transforms hundreds of toilet paper rolls into soaring streamers, and casts the entire audience as extras in the messiest grand finale ever.  AGA-BOOM's dialogue-free funny business and irresistible charm add up to a unique and "literally riotous" (L.A. Times) alternative to the holiday season's typical fare.
