Clown City
(a fragment from the memory of someone who may never have been there, but always longed to go)
On my way between errands and forgetfulness, I stumbled upon a city that wasn’t on any map.
It had no addresses, no towers, no offices. There were no doors through which one could enter.
And yet, right there at a nameless stop, the bus paused for a moment – and I stepped off, as if something had called me.
The first thing I saw was a man balancing the world with the soles of his feet – carefully, as if trying to persuade gravity not to lose its meaning. Beside him, another was spinning planets on an invisible axis: the discs glowed and sang, as if playing the melody of the solar wind. It was puzzling, but not senseless.
I noticed others: someone juggling balls that returned to his hands like they had travelled from a distant planet, another climbing a ladder with no end, leaning against the sky, and one walking on a tightrope stretched above the pavement – as if walking the line between life and vanishing. Below him, two friends signalled with gestures to guide his steps, so he wouldn’t fall into the abyss or into forgetting.
They didn’t speak – they communicated with movement, with flowers, with soap bubbles, ropes, knives, with dance. Every gesture was a word, every glance a voice. They all cooperated – no one was playing. They took risks, but they didn’t fall. And if anyone lost their balance, they caught him gently in silence.
When I came closer, they looked at me, just for a moment. As if to say: "You could be one of us too. If you can walk the fine line that separates light from shadow. Between laughter that echoes and the silence of a fall that still resounds.
And every time you fall, you rise with an invisible song – one the world hears only if it remembers how to listen to what was once said without words."

Nonverbal, integrational clown show for a family audience
Duration: 40 min
Recommended age: 4+
A tangle of strings that comes from far away. A tangle of thoughts and emotions that lead to laughter and play—the purest and most useful tools for unraveling knots. A show for all ages, where the premise is creating on stage in a way that appeals to the collective imagination. Genuine personality and improvisation guide us to create a unique space in every performance. The performance is hosted in collaboration with the Klovnbuf Festival of Contemporary Clown and New Circus.

Clown in Libertà
Teatro Necessario (IT)
29.6.2025 at 8:00 PM platform in front of the SNG Nova Gorica
Music and clown performance for all audiences
Duration: 60 minutes
A concert continually interrupted by comic digressions of the musicians or a clown show fancifully supported by music?
Clown in Libertà is an experience of euphoric entertainment and catharsis for three lively clowns who are taken by childish excitement at the idea of having a stage and an audience all to themselves. Without any dialogue, Clown in Libertà tells of an odd afternoon during which the three clowns try to set up a show to amuse, amaze and finally win over their audience. Trying by any means to surprise, at the cost of overwhelming one another, they end up leading the action astray, through marvellous sequences of acrobatics follow, duels in slow motion, intricate juggling, and thrilling pyramids.
Music is the real centrepiece of the experience since it accompanies, underlines and lends rhythm to each action. The entire show is the result of a continuous musical journey that moves forward, even during the most astonishing acrobatics, thanks to the physical talents and superb comic instincts of the performers.

Production Teatro Necessario
Teatro Necessario has been creating and promoting contemporary circus and street theatre for over 20 years. Their work has received numerous awards and recognitions.
They have been described, among other things, as follows:
“Teatro Necessario presented Clown in Libertà, conquering the entire audience without exception. A street show which, despite its extreme simplicity and minimal resources, possesses all the traits and allure of great theatre.”
— Colpi di Scena, critic’s report
“Clown in Libertà is one of the best small-format shows we’ve seen recently. Leonardo Adorni, Alessandro Mori (who drew comparisons to the famous Mr. Bean), and Jacopo Bianchini perfectly merge the quality of live swing music with the acrobatics and expressiveness of true clowns. A bold concert, with audience interaction that culminates in thunderous applause and people approaching the artists afterward to congratulate them.”
— Teresa Ferré, Artez

THE ONE & the one
Anna de Lirium (A) & Colette Gomette (FR)
29.6.2025 ob 21.00 SNG Nova Gorica
Physical comedy for all generations
Duration: 70 minut
In the pure tradition of the greatest comical duos like Arlecchino & Brighella, Footit & Chocolat, Stan Laurel & Oliver Hardy, Jerry Lewis & Dean Martin we discover Anna de Lirium & Colette Gomette in a hilarious combination of female clown power.
Dve klovnesi, ki sta očarljivi že s svojo pojavo: Anna – visoka, z razkošnimi oblinami, in Colette – majhna, a živa in iskriva. Prva je naivna in nekoliko počasna, druga hitra in navihana. Kar se zdi nepremostljiva ovira, je v resnici druga stran istega kovanca – pripadata si kot jin in jang.
Medtem ko ti dve dami poskušata doseči svoj cilj – ki ni nič drugega kot igranje na flavto –, se pred nami razplete širok spekter človeških odnosov.
Bogate izkušnje nastopajočih in njuna preprostost omogočajo, da skozi vsak trenutek predstave zasijeta modrost in univerzalnost.
Ideja, scenarij in izvedba: Hélène Gustin, Tanja Simma

Biti klovn
Zavod Bufeto z gosti
1.7.2025 ob 20.00 SNG Nova Gorica
Gledališka raziskava – delo v nastajanju, mednarodna produkcija
Biti klovn je dramatična klovnovska igra, ki gradi na tradiciji commedie dell’arte. Brezhibno pretaplja komične rutine in cirkuške točke z dramskimi elementi v hibridno komično predstavo. Neposredna interakcija z občinstvom je ena od ključnih značilnosti, saj spodbuja dinamično in privlačno gledalsko izkušnjo. Zgodba se odvija anarhično, vodi jo intuitiven in spontan razvoj. Predstava vključuje prepoznavne in izrazite klovnovske like ter predstavlja novo, hibridno obliko gledališča.
Avtorska ideja: Ravil in Natalia Sultanov
Režijske konzultacije (supervizija): Adian Schvarzstein, Paolo Nani

AUDIOBUS
Hommáge Georgesu Perecu
28.6.2025 ob 18.05 in 19.20 železniška postaja, Gorica (IT)
Zvočno-vizualno popotovanje z avtobusom
Popotovanje poteka v italijanskem jeziku.
Kaj dela mesto prav to mesto? Kaj dela Gorico prav Gorico?
Audiobus je nenavadno popotovanje z mestnim avtobusom, na meji med resničnim in nadrealnim. Mnogo stvari, ki pripovedujejo o mestu ,če ne večina, je že napisanih v turističnih vodnikih. To potovanje pa se posveča vsemu tistemu, kar običajno ostane spregledano, tistemu, česar ne opazimo in tistemu, čemur ne namenimo pogleda.
Ob vstopu na avtobus prejmeš slušalke, glas pripovedovalca te bo spremljal, vodil in hkrati osvobodil tvojo domišljijo. Glasovi in zvoki bodo popolnoma usklajeni s tem, kar vidiš oziroma misliš, da vidiš okoli sebe. V mestu življenje utripa. A kaj pravzaprav je življenje v mestu?
Če si želiš o tem razmišljati skozi igro in čudenje, če želiš pogledati na mesto s kančkom magije in ščepcem lepote, se usedi na Audiobus. Dvigni pogled. Ozri se naokrog in se prepusti poeziji.
Audiobus je multidisciplinarna predstava, literarno popotovanje, polno vizualnih in zvočnih vtisov, akrobacij in pripovedi. Vse se dogaja hkrati, znotraj in zunaj avtobusa, kjer resničnost postaja hipna snov zgodbe.
Ta etapa Audiobusa je del širšega projekta »Audiobus in multimedijska zvočna izkušnja v Borgo Castellu«, ki razvija zvočne in izkustvene multimedijske produkcije, osredotočene na območje Borgo Castello.
