Joyful, silly, and… soaking wet! A delightful wordless comedy for all ages created by Madagascar’s La Compagnie Zolobe, Sakasaka will add joy to everyone’s day. In the great tradition of slapstick comedians like The Three Stooges, La Compagnie Zolobe’s clown trio uses physical comedy and body language to tell their story while remaining completely silent. They are accompanied by a musician who plays traditional instruments: kabosy (a rectangular guitar) and djembe (drum). The word sakasaka means “thirsty” in Malagasy and, using just a mop, bucket and a few bottles of water, the clowns take audiences on hilarious adventures that gently and sincerely explore the preciousness of water. Laugh out loud and learn important lessons as you go on a journey of dance, music, splashes, and joy!
