The audience will be in stitches. Performers will be in pain - but it won't show. Much.

The Daily Telegraph: 11Jan01: Star RatingStar Rating
The clown is a woman dressed as a man, pretending to be the harassed theatre manager. She doesn t raise a smile all night. The music, with a manic violinist much to the fore, tries desperately to be cutting-edge, but is mostly a dissonant, sludgy mess. I have rarely seen trapeze routines performed with such gallumphing lack of grace.
