A continuing experiment in comedy, theatre, music and, of course, juggling, the Flying Karamozov Brothers – Alexei, Pavel, Dmitri and Zossima – blend the worlds of performance art, improvisation, word play, harmony, emotion and above all virtuosity into a unique form of theatre and entertainment.
Comedy is their bread and butter, and they layer it on so that children of 2 or 92 will laugh at the same moment for very different reasons. Conceived in 1972 at a Renaissance fair in California, they have since appeared on television and film, performed at the Lincoln Center, received an OBIE award and been honored with an Award of Excellence by the International Juggling Association.
Reviewing their all-new Off-Broadway show, the New York Times called them “ a low-tech triumph,” “as close to a sure thing as can be found onstage,” and “part Marx Brothers, part Monty Python.” FKB.com
