The Farmer and the Clown

Home. You know where it is when you’re there.

An old hard-working farmer lives alone. A baby clown bounces off a passing circus train in the middle of nowhere, now separated from family and friends. Unsure what to do, the farmer takes the clown home. Can a friendship span the generations? Can old dogs learn new tricks? Can the young clown find its way home?

The Farmer and the Clown is a story of an unexpected friendship for all ages, told through physical comedy and dance, and performed with an original live soundtrack.

Adapted from the charming picture-book by award-winning author and illustrator Marla Frazee (The Boss Baby), this wordless, heartwarming show is a Flibbertigibbet Theatre production.

At the end of the performance, audiences are invited onto the stage to meet the puppets.
