February Shows

The first two "The Balloon Gardener" shows are sprouted,  grown and harvested. Two great audiences, the first at Haverhill Arts Centre, Suffolk where 114 people came out to see the show. Lovely staff, great audience and I really enjoyed myself.
There was a great spread in the local paper and they came up with...

"A highly visual fusion of top-notch tomfoolery and comedy chaos"
Haverhill Weekly News
The second show of the month was at Quarterhouse in Folkstone, Kent. Once again a fab turn out of 125 people. A modern venue, and a very good audience who willingly took up my offer of "Hey if you want, come and take a butterfly home"..... They were all gone by the time they left the auditorium. I think this is a keeper in the show.


I also performed at press night for the Camden People's Theatre Sprint festival press launch. Although I didn't perform anything from the show and did my cabaret act there was this great write up 

"Have you ever seen a slightly balding, slightly round looking, thick rimmed-glasses-wearing man immerse himself into a rubber balloon? Oh you have? Then I need not to talk about Danny & his amazing balloons, a slapstick, clown showing, balloon bursting performance by Circo Ridiculoso. Whether born into a balloon factory, or just bored at work, Ridiculoso knows how to crack a smile on any glum audience by his balloon manipulating skills. It’s good to see something that doesn’t take a lot of brain cells to enjoy."
