Description

A split bill from two Gaulier-trained legends; Lotte Allan (aka Barry) and Susanna Pukkila (aka Joni), combining clown, character comedy and drag. "Barry" is a lovable elderly gentleman, complete with dentures, a leaky catheter and failing eyesight. Barry's just glad to have some visitors. "Joni" is a Finnish alpha-male hockey bro. He's about to play the game of his life and needs the whole team on their a-game. So pull up your pants, as these work in progress solo shows promise to be an entertaining experience for all and may even sexually confuse the Dads.

Fantastic double bill. Lotte envokes the spirit of Eddie Hitler from Bottom. Susanna manages to capture the essence of a whole minor league hockey team in one person.

Well done both!

Joni and Barry are two silly, entertaining character archetypes presented individually by two talented comedic actors/clowns. Great physical comedy and lots of fun gags. A great way to spend an hour of the afternoon at the Fringe. Hopefully Barry and Joni will have their own shows at future fringes, or maybe their lives will intersect in some absurd way. These two are simply a hoot to watch!
