In this one-man silent comedy, Snowflake lives alone in a vacant lot – a catchall for life’s discarded objects. With a hilarious blend of comic genius, slapstick, feats of balance, and tender moments, this is a tale of a simple soul who gains pleasure from the simplest of objects. Alone in his world, Snowflake entertains himself by recycling found objects into comic treasures: a crate becomes a ski hill; discarded skis become toe shoes for a farcical ballet; an abandoned car, a home; packing bubbles, a bed frame, and a saw become unlikely musical instruments.
