BLIZZARD

Heroic, absurd, romantic and stupidly beautiful. I have a uniform. A suitcase that becomes a horse. Fake snow. This will have to be enough. One Polish clown attempts the most epic adventure story ever told. A soldier lost in the blizzard of war sets off carrying an orange, a broken sword and the memory of the love of his life. He carries everything except what he actually needs. Rooted loosely in Polish history and the mythology of the Napoleonic wars, BLIZZARD uses melodrama, physical comedy, audience interaction, puppetry and a frankly unreasonable amount of fake snow to explore what might be hiding underneath the uniform. * Bio * Piotr Sikora is a Polish clown, performer and theatre-maker based in London.
