About the Clownz

Clownz With Apple is the performance company of the Boyz With Apple artist collective. We are a non-binary and women led troupe specializing in immersive, site-specific, physical theatre—and, of course, clowning around. Internationally-based, Clownz With Apple’s process is highly collaborative, non-hierarchical, and emergent. This process is driven by our sense of child-like wonder and the spontaneous discoveries made by the company—the performers, designers, managers, and technicians playing and creating together.

Mission Statement

Clownz With Apple specializes in site-specific, interactive, and devised theatre.

We are founded on the following principles:

 

  • Ours is a materialist theatre, one which is concerned with the materiality of the objects we use, of the material conditions of the artists/workers employed in its production, and of the material reality of the community it serves. We are especially in tune with the material needs of the community we serve and strive to couple our theatre with substantive community action whenever possible.

  • Our materialist concerns extend most especially and crucially to the theatre’s role in the global ecosystem and will do everything in our power to create frugally, to use found objects, and to restrict waste. We take up this task joyfully, allowing a sustainable framework to be a source of creativity and imagination.

  • The privilege and responsibility of creation belongs equally to every member of the company, including but not limited to designers, technicians, actors, dramaturges, etc.

  • Ours is a theatre of metaphor, of play, of joy, of laughter, of light, and of sorrow.

  • Ours is a theatre of fleshiness, of color, of immediacy, of heat.

  • Ours is a theatre of breath and of tenderness.
