Starting from mythological and phylosophical places and from the exploration of Albano Beirão's figure, Rui Paixão questions his place as a clown, but also the role of the audience as an audiencie and, eventually, as a clown also. We all have awareness (and fear) of the absurd/ridiculous, but perhaps it is possible to find reasons to laugh in the discomfort. Undressing, not dressing, the mask. In this creation, premiered in 2021, Rui Paixão confronts the spectator with stereotyped images that belong to our imaginary when we talk about clowns, shifting them by putting them face-to-face with texts and intentions that amplify the meaning of the word "clown".
