About this Event

DOORS: 8:15pm

SHOW: 8:30pm

Eris Mainstage

In this intimately absurd hour, Claire Woolner attempts to perform a retrospective of her ‘greatest’ most ‘moving’ and ‘important’ pieces; work made up of surrealist clown bits and performance pieces punctuated with and interrupted by a maniacal voice of self-loathing. The show toes the line between what is intended and what is improvised, what is funny and what is not, bringing the audience on an exciting (and at times nerve wracking) ride of ego battle, failure, creativity and how to survive, discover and connect amidst them all. “If the performance artist Marina Abramovic were a clown” - the New York Times
