A man earnestly spreads bread crumbs to repel tigers... four clowns juggle meditation pillows, fighting to get the most comfortable seat... and, finally, Dog learns to sit, floating high in the air.
UMO Ensemble goes Zen - the Northwest's most acclaimed physical theatre company brings their irreverent approach to ancient tales of wonder to ACT Theatre. Presented in collaboration with the Central Heating Lab at ACT, Umo's red nose monk clowns weave Buddhist, Zen and Sufi stories with mask, puppets, music - and breathtaking physical skill. The UMO Ensemble clowns tackle life head-on... dangling from a rope, juggling or balancing...singing and clowning. Red Tiger Tales is a delight for the whole family; leaving young and old alike laughing loudly and thinking deeply. January 31, 7:30 pm, February 1, 7:30 pm and February 2; 2pm.
Tickets are $5-$20, and available online at www.acttheatre.org or ACT box office 206-292-7676.
