STUFF
a daft, quirky, charming, clever and utterly delightful comedy/circus/clowning theatre piece from Sean Kempton, the lead clown of Cirque Du Soliel. Extremely family friendly.
STUFF is a love story but not one you’ve seen a million times before, this is another kind of love story, maybe everybody’s love story.
STUFF is playful, funny, sad and familiar. Lead clown for Cirque du Soleil, Sean Kempton, mixes comedy, mime, clowning and the odd bit of dance in this absurdist show about love… The result is a highly energetic and entertaining, physical piece that takes its audience on a journey through the fragility, hilarity and awkwardness that love can sometimes entail.
STUFF is predominantly a non-verbal 60 minute solo show that is perfect for studio spaces but can adapted to a larger spaces and festival setting when required. It was developed from interviews of people from the ages of 6 through to 84 on the subjects of Love and human connection.
‘Adults, teenagers, children… it is a show that everyone will enjoy!’
The Stage
‘Endearingly accomplished and unashamedly focused on connecting with the audience’
