I think this may be the most charming, surprising and delightful show of the Fringe! A show that begins before you even enter the space, we were all greeted by a servant of the Queen, wearing a wonderful moustache, who hands out paperbags to various members of the audience, paperbags we later find out that are crucial to the piece.

We are in 1653 and clowns are being outlawed because the wonderfully talented Hume Baugh’s character does not like them.
