Recommendations of Apocalypse Clown

  • SMJ .: The Adventures of Bungo Calamity: Apocalypse Clown

    One of the best adaptations of Homer's work that you will find. Incredibly funny, smart, and moving. An absolute dream for all theatermakers to work on! May it have many productions.

  • Jack McManus: The Adventures of Bungo Calamity: Apocalypse Clown

    With one foot in the world of absurdist sitcoms and the other in The Classics, Bungo Calamity is a joyful retelling of one of the oldest stories. Its post-apocalyptic setting is playfully macabre. The play is a gift to directors, the characters a gift to actors. It makes me laugh as hard as it makes me cry, sometimes in the same beat.

  • Paige Esterly: The Adventures of Bungo Calamity: Apocalypse Clown

    An epic play of apocalyptic destruction, clowning, radioactive goo, self-discovery, meth pigs, friendship, and a harrowing journey through a nuclear wasteland full of bats with just too many eyes, man. AJ Ditty has created one of the only pieces of theater I will ever call "life-affirming" unironically. You will laugh, you will cry, you will be able to face our own apocalyptic world with that much more hope and resolve.

  • Sarah Jae Leiber: The Adventures of Bungo Calamity: Apocalypse Clown

    A gorgeous act of silliness. A.J. Ditty knows exactly how to balance madcap clowniness alongside grounded good-heartedness in his plotting and characters, creating an easily-trackable, accessible adaptation of THE ODYSSEY & THE ILIAD that simultaneously makes you wonder if the Homer who first spun this yarn might have been Homer Simpson. An absolute dream production for very lucky, very funny actors, directors, designers, and artisans.
