About the Show

Two clowns. One problem. No dialogue. How to get a good night’s sleep?? If you like Mr. Bean, you’ll love these two fools as they try to get back to utopia for a good night of rest in a comedy suitable for all ages and all languages. You’ll be drawn in to the relatable daily grind and laugh at the outrageous problem solving. And like any true clown show, the performance cannot take place without you. Come release your laughter, we know you’re curious…

"A master class in how little we need to words to tell an entertaining, vibrant, richly nuanced story" – Broadway World

Best in Physical Theatre and Dance Nominee – Hollywood Fringe Festival 2025

Male Presenting Clown Cota is a chicané artist who is no stranger to the abstract or obscene and the absurdity of inner city living; growing up as a native Angeleno, it is the very essence of their stage performance. Outside of the character of the clown, Cota is a working commercial actor, a successful small business owner, and a social activist. @flaskfullofamaro
